Taz signs multi-year deal with AEW

Taz is officially under contract with All Elite Wrestling.

AEW announced today that Taz has signed a multi-year agreement with the promotion. They posted a video of Taz signing his contract backstage at last night’s Bash at the Beach edition of Dynamite.

Taz debuted for AEW as a guest commentator on the third episode of AEW Dark back in October. He also filled in for Tony Schiavone on the New Year’s Day episode of Dynamite and called last night’s AEW Dark tapings.

Taz commented on signing with AEW: “I am beyond proud to be on this AWESOME team of driven/talented people! Let’s GO. #ImWithAEW #AEW @AEWrestling”

Taz also tweeted before the news was announced: “Couple of announcements regarding my career today. 1st, I can tell u guys, ‘Taz Show’ pod will be on a ‘hold’ for quite some time. I know many if u don’t like that news, I apologize for inconvenience & THANK U for all the support. My other career news will be announce shortly.”

It was announced yesterday that AEW has signed an extended deal that will keep Dynamite on TNT through at least 2023. The deal includes launching another night of AEW action in the form of an hour-long show.
