Powerhouse Hobbs Has Signed His Next Contract

January 23, 2026Jan 23, 2026|Anutosh Bajpai

Key Points

  • Powerhouse Hobbs Signs with WWE: Former AEW star Powerhouse Hobbs has officially signed a contract with WWE after leaving AEW.
  • Speculation on Debut: There is speculation on Hobbs' new ring name in WWE, "Royce Keys," but no official details have been provided on his debut.

Powerhouse Hobbs has chosen his path.

The former TNT Champion had left AEW after his contract expired last Wednesday, with the belief that he was heading to WWE.

Though the former Don Callis Family member had held the trios title with The Opps until the last day of his AEW run. With reports of AEW making him a huge offer to stay with the promotion, there had been at least a possibility that he could choose to return to the company.

Now Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select is reporting, however, that Hobbs has made the next chapter of his career official by signing a deal with the Endeavor-owned promotion:

There is no word on when or where Hobbs will make his debut for WWE, but the company's recent trademark 'Royce Keys' is speculated to be the new ring name for the heavyweight star.

The next few months are shaping up to be an exciting ride for WWE fans with multiple big surprises. This includes the highly speculated return of Chris Jericho and another popular star who had been dealing with an injury. You can check out more about it here.
