On Monday night, Joey Ryan announced that he was finishing up on the indies and began to promote a “farewell tour.” There were recent reports that he was in talks with WWE to join the NXT roster and possibly become a coach in NXT later down the line. According to sources, WWE is potentially making a play against AEW by trying to acquire Joey Ryan.

Dave Meltzer says he’s never heard of WWE contacting Joey Ryan for nearly 10 years, until just last week when Ryan was released from his Lucha Underground contract. Ryan has often been featured on the “Being the Elite” YouTube series as well, where most of the talent on that show are signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW). As of this writing, Joey Ryan is not under contract with WWE, AEW or Impact Wrestling.

The idea is that WWE is only interested in Ryan so they can take a potential asset away from AEW and “Being the Elite”.

Also, the impression backstage is that the offer WWE put out to Ryan is “nothing special” and “wouldn’t put him on the main roster.”

There is no word from Joey Ryan as to where he’ll be going next after his farewell tour.
