Former AEW TBS Champion Willow Nightingale is officially “sticking around” with All Elite Wrestling, having re-signed with the company on a new multi-year contract. Fightful Select confirmed the new agreement this week.
This development follows Fightful’s recent report that Nightingale was in her contract year. At that time, it was also noted that AEW considered her a “priority” and was keen on keeping the popular star. According to Fightful, a new deal was finalized “almost immediately after our story” (their initial report on her contract status), with early indications suggesting she would remain with the promotion.
Fightful Select shared insights from AEW sources regarding Nightingale’s own stance. These sources indicated that Nightingale “communicated she was very happy with the company and wanted to remain there.”
Nightingale has become one of All Elite Wrestling’s most popular and beloved stars. Nightingale first appeared in AEW in May 2021, primarily competing on “AEW Dark: Elevation” and “AEW Dark.” She signed with the company the following year where she would win the TBS Title in 2024. She lost the title to Mercedes Mone at Double or Nothing.
