According to the latest reports, AEW star Hook’s contract expiration is nearing. Hook, who is the son of wrestling legend Taz, has been making waves in the wrestling world. He is making a lot of noise in his current reign as the FTW Champion.
The FTW Championship has been the focal point of Hook’s career since his debut in AEW, a title introduced by his father during his ECW days. Currently, Hook is in a program with Chris Jericho, who plays both roles in the storyline as a competitor and an adversary. This feud appears to be building towards a future one-on-one match between Jericho and Hook.
Despite being in a program with Chris Jericho, Hook seems inclined to consider his options as his contract ends. Reports from SESCOOPS indicate that AEW’s rising star, Hook, will see his contract expire later this year.
Furthermore, the reports mention a source from WWE hinting at their interest. The source stated, “I can see WWE clearly being interested in him.”
While the outcome remains uncertain, Hook’s potential move to another major promotion like WWE would undoubtedly make waves in the wrestling world.
What’s next for AEW’s rising star, Hook?
WWE and AEW are actively seeking to sign top talent from around the world. Both promotions are actively trying to secure free agents.
AEW recently secured talents like Will Ospreay, Kazuchika Okada, and Mercedes Martinez. Meanwhile, WWE successfully signed Giulia, who recently debuted on WWE NXT Stand & Deliver. She was spotted sitting at ringside with William Regal. Furthermore, WWE has secured AEW stars such as Jade Cargill, Shawn Spears, and CM Punk.
It appears that WWE is actively seeking their next star, with Hook’s contract scheduled to expire later this year. Reports suggest that he is also exploring his options. Last year, there were rumors indicating Taz’s desire for his son to join WWE.
Now, with WWE interested in signing him, the situation has become more compelling. As his contract nears its end, it remains to be seen whether AEW President Tony Khan can persuade Hook to renew his contract with the promotion or if Hook will opt to join WWE under Triple H’s leadership.
