Controversial star officially announces he has re-signed with AEW after weeks of speculation

A popular yet controversial AEW star put an end to a huge ongoing speculation by confirming that he has re-signed with the promotion.

The aforementioned star is the former National Champion, Jungle Boy Jack Perry. He has been part of the Jacksonville-based promotion since the very beginning and has been considered one of the four pillars of All Elite Wrestling. Furthermore, Perry has achieved tag team success with his partner, Luchasaurus, and even had major singles success, winning the TNT and National titles. At the same time, he had been involved in multiple controversial incidents, most famously his real-life brawl with CM Punk in 2023.

On the other hand, there has been significant speculation over the last few weeks about his current contract, which was reported to be set to expire soon. Moreover, the latest update had stated that Perry had still not signed a new deal, and his existing one was set to expire very shortly.
