Tony Nese is reportedly All Elite.

stream


Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reports that Tony Nese has signed with All Elite Wrestling. Meltzer said on Wrestling Observer Radio, "He's signed, that's the deal" when discussing Nese in AEW.

Details regarding the deal was not given. AEW has talent signed to a tier 0 contract ("agreed to appear") and will move them up to a tier 1 contract (base contract agreement), which is often indicated by the "All Elite" graphic on social media. You can find Cody Rhodes' explanation of how tier contracts work by clicking here.


AEW has not given Nese the "All Elite" graphic on social media.

Nese was shown in the crowd on AEW Dynamite where he was called "one of the hottest free agents in wrestling," and then worked the AEW Dark tapings at Universal Studios.

Fightful will continue to update fans on Nese's deal with AEW when more is known.

Used to like Tony a lot but I was getting pretty bored of him about the time he won the CW title funny enough lol he can still go in the ring so he should he a solid undercard guy. I'd book him like a Matt Sydal though

Yeah I was thinking as a lesser guy in a faction or even some random tag pairing could end up being money bc I enjoyed the ones he had in WWE with guys like Gulak and Daivari

Yeah we're pretty much on the same wave length here, kind of like the Chairman role in Pinnacle (if he shows more personality then great!)

The main issue I ended up having with Tony Nese is his personality seemed to devolve into pointing at his abs and nothing else lol so hopefully that changes

I always thought Nese had the tools inside the Ring to be a Star but I've never seen even when he CW Champion his niche as a Character. If he find himself in that department he'll be fine with AEW.
