In the ever-evolving world of professional wrestling, news of releases often sends shockwaves through the community. One such recent release from All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has been making headlines, and the individual in question has finally broken his silence.
Ace Steel, a name synonymous with AEW, found himself at the centre of attention when he was released from the company. This release came on the heels of a significant backstage incident at AEW’s All In event at Wembley Stadium on August 27th. While the details of the incident remain shrouded in mystery, it’s evident that it played a pivotal role in the decisions that followed.
Interestingly, this wasn’t Steel’s first exit from AEW. He had previously been let go in the aftermath of another backstage incident at AEW All Out. However, he was rehired ahead of CM Punk’s much-anticipated return on the debut episode of Collision in June.
Since his return, Steel had been working remotely as a producer for Collision, a decision made by Tony Khan, AEW’s president. This arrangement reportedly caused a delay in announcing Punk’s return, as Punk was not pleased with Steel’s remote working conditions.

He added this post to his ‘COLLISION’ highlights section on Instagram, hinting at its relevance to his recent departure.
