A former WWE champion has apparently signed with AEW.
Former WWE star Kayden Carter, now going by the name Lacey Lane, made her debut for Ring of Honor in September, where she unsuccessfully challenged Mina Shirakawa for the Interim ROH Women\'s TV title.
The ROH match led to her getting an opportunity to compete on Dynamite during the October 7 Title Tuesday special. She answered Mercedes Mone\'s open challenge for the AEW TBS Championship on the show.
While Lane was again unsuccessful in her quest to win the title, she seems to have made a good impression on AEW Officials. Fightful Select is reporting that Lacey was signed by the company after her match with Mone.
Making her wrestling debut in 2016 after training with The Dudley Boyz, the female star was signed by WWE in 2018, and she competed in the Mae Young Classic that year.
After a year in development, Lane debuted the Kayden Carter moniker on NXT in September 2019. She then started teaming with Kacy Catanzaro.
The duo had a successful tag team run, winning the Women\'s tag titles in both NXT and the main roster. Both of them were released from their deals in May this year.
