Austin Gunn has signed a contract with AEW.

Cody came out during AEW Dark tapings that took place tonight following AEW Dynamite and announced that Gunn had signed with the promotion.

Austin Gunn has been working dark matches for the company recently. He teamed with his father Billy (who works as a producer for the company) last week taking on Santana and Ortiz. He teamed with his dad once again this week in another dark match, facing the team of Shawn Spears and Preston Vance.

Gunn, 25, started wrestling in 2017 and has been working on the independent scene since then. Back in August, he competed in the 2019 Top Prospect Tournament for Ring of Honor, losing to Dak Draper in the finals back on September 28.

He also took part in the first All Out Battle Royal back in 2018, which was eventually won by Flip Gordon under a mask.
