The deal for one-time Jurassic Express member Marko Stunt is one of "numerous" AEW contracts that are reportedly set to come up this May.

Fightful first reported the news.

The 25-year-old Stunt (pictured above) hasn't been on AEW TV since a late-September 2021 edition of AEW Dark: Elevation as he and Fuego Del Sol lost to Shawn Spears and Wardlow.

Fightful reported Stunt hasn't been backstage in months and there are no creative plans that have been mentioned for him. They also noted he has not been included in any Jurassic Express merchandise as of late.

He announced in July 2019 that he was signed to a deal.

Fightful didn't mention what other deals are coming up for either a renewal or expiration, but Joey Janela is one of them as he said himself in a recent interview with Denise Salcedo.

In that interview, Janela mentioned Stunt by name, saying the two of them hadn't been communicated with and that AEW "just stopped talking to Stunt."

Stunt has only wrestled four matches since the aforementioned Elevation bout, two of which were for GCW.

Stunt and Janela were probably my two least favorite members of the roster in 2019. I think they have places to go so I don’t feel too bad for being happy about this.

 

[Swerve]

I wish them luck in there future endeavors.

 

[Deezy]

Should've just ripped the bandaid off and got rid of your useless people.

Mass layoffs are needed from time to time.

Nothing wrong with not extending the contract but AEW should at least be professional and call him to tell him "Hey we aren't extending" imo

Janela seems to do well for himself in the indy scene. I just watched him at a GCW show the other night in the main event.

A "hey you'll be free on Wednesdays if you wanna book some dates" woulda been nice probably

The irony that aew probably needs a Johnny ace guy to make those calls because its clear TK ain't comfortable doing it. Time is a flat circle

Christopher Daniels WOAT talent relations guy

I still think Stunt is better in that Lucha Express role than Christian.

 

[Comrade Khan]

That's a hot take for sure, Juice. I think Marko had hit his ceiling n jurassic can't be taken seriously with a dinosaur AND a child. Regarding Christian I like him in the manager role n it gave Jungle Boy tons of improvement on the mic since. But, I would like his character to develop a bit more now.

 

[CakeWalker]

It just felt like a much more organic fit. Plus Stunt is a great bumps guy

 

[Comrade Khan]

I just hope they don't drop Kip

He hasn't had a call from Tony in months, just buys a ticket himself to do his box thing

Very strange
