Kevin Knight signs with AEW

“Congratulations, it’s official!,” Khan wrote. After a fantastic performance at Saturday Night #AEWCollision tonight, @Jet2Flyy Kevin Knight is All Elite!”

Knight was unsuccessful in his match against Jay White on Saturday, but did get praise from the IWGP Champion. After the match, White shook hands with Knight and guessed that we would be seeing a lot more from Knight in AEW. 

Beginning his pro wrestling career in 2019, Knight joined NJPW the following year as a young lion, working his way up the card until 2022 when he started to team with KUSHIDA. Together, the two held the IWGP Jr. Tag Team titles on two occasions, with the duo most recently dropping the titles to Robbie Eagles and Kosei Fujita in a four-way ladder match at Wrestle Kingdom 19. That was Knight’s most recent appearance with the company, wrestling for the likes of Maple Leaf Pro and GCW in the months since.
