Tony Khan Announces New AEW Signing

Another Dark wrestler has signed full-time with AEW.

Over the last year, we have seen a number of wrestlers who compete on AEW Dark get signed full-time to the company. Friday morning Tony Khan announced that another wrestler who has competed for a lot of Dark over the last year has been signed with the company.

This morning AEW President Tony Khan announced that the company has signed Shawn Dean full-time to the company.

Thank you for your service to the USA, @ShawnDean773, + thank you for everything you’ve done for @AEW to help us thrive through the pandemic. Your consistent hard work, positivity + reliability have made you so valuable to #AEW; now it’s my honor to officially welcome you aboard! pic.twitter.com/SJhRB7MNyz

For those unaware of Dean, he has been competing on AEW Dark since March of 2020 and has worked over 30 matches on that show. Dean has also competed on AEW Dynamite two times in a match with MJF and another with Brian Cage. Dean has also been teaming with Carlie Bravo recently as well on AEW Dark calling themselves The Infantry.

Before anyone asks, this is not the signing that Paul Wight said we will find out about this weekend at AEW Revolution.
