Do we think he's done? The match with Jungle Boy at Revolution felt like the end of him in AEW and I wouldn't be surprised if he pops back up in WWE in the near future.
Does anyone know how long his contract was for?

He's advertised for the Canada shows in June-July so I'd assume he is back for the Forbidden Door build.

Think the nature of the Final Burial match was able to mask a lot of the fact that he may not be 100% in ring ready yet- he only returned a couple weeks prior to the PPV, and I feel TK really wanted that whole feud out of the way before Jungle Boy moved on to the Four Pillars storyline.
So he may be still a bit away from a proper return. I'm really looking forward to what he does when he is back properly. Lots of great options.

I hope he's still contracted to AEW and stays around. I've really enjoyed this run and he plays such a great unrepentant bastard heel. I don't think he'd be as much fun in WWE.

If Eddie Kingston wins the ROH Title, then Cage would be a great challenger.

A feud with Starks would be a lot of fun. |

Him coming out with Edge on Sunday as The Brood would be fun.

He signed in February 2021 and was out for some time with an injury. He wouldn't be able to leave unless he a) got released which is unlikely or b) only signed a two year contract with no injury time added which also seems unlikely given time was added to Omega's contract and most AEW contracts tend to be for at least 3 years. He also seems pretty happy there. It says a lot WWE cleared him and let him in the Rumble with a potential feud with Edge and he still signed with AEW. I think he'll be back. It's best for him to take time off to sell the angle and come back when they have a big angle for him in the summer.

Ever since Christian got back he's another guy that had been working a lot as a coach/producer. I think he was healthy enough to finish the feud but likely needs to get back into ring shape. But I'm still calling that JB is gonna win a singles title and Christian is gonna come back after him |

I had a gut feeling he'd be heading back to WWE to retire alongside Edge. Nothing concrete, just a feeling
There's so much more I'd love to see him do in AEW/ROH though

I would absolutely salivate over that, but I thought it was a lock that Edge was retiring at Summerslam this year? |

It's been teased at times but there is nothing definite. I imagine it all depends on how he continues to feel and what offers he might get. |

Does anyone know how long his contract was for? Pretty sure he was signed to a 3 year deal, so that’d put him at March 2024 plus any injury time added on. He won’t be a free agent for awhile still. |

I would literally throw money at my television if that was ever announced. |

It was never reported as anything except a “multi-year” deal from what I found. |
