All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has been extremely busy in the free agency market since the beginning of 2026.

From The Rascalz and Lena Kross to Mistico and The Dogs, these signings have bolstered the roster and added real depth to the names fans see on the weekly AEW television.

There could be even more free agents coming into the promotion over the coming weeks and months that will have a greater effect on the landscape of AEW moving forward.

Here are eight new potential AEW signings.

8. Killer Kelly

At the start of 2026, Killer Kelly left TNA Wrestling after nearly four years with the promotion.

With her eccentric personality and standout look, Kelly was someone who shined in the TNA Knockouts division over the past few years.

Kelly is also the fiancée of Myron Reed of The Rascalz and someone who could truly be spotlighted in the AEW women’s division.

Joining her partner in another company, Killer Kelly would be a wonderful addition to the AEW roster and become a weekly highlight of the company’s programming.

7. Priscilla Kelly

In May 2025, Gigi Dolin was one of the names released from their WWE contract during the slate of talent cuts.

Since leaving WWE, Dolin has gone back to her real name of Priscilla Kelly and returned to the independent scene.

Hitting the ground running back on the indies, Kelly has excelled in several different promotions around the world.

PK is someone who has the experience, the skills and the poise to become a major star in the AEW women’s division following her signing with the company.

6. Safire Reed & Anita Vaughan

Pro Wrestling EVE has become one of the most noteworthy independent promotions in the UK.

The all-women’s company has seen some of the best in the industry competing inside the squared circle and featured future stars who have caught the eyes of the fans.

Looking at their roster of talent, Safire Reed and Anita Vaughan, better known as Hyper Active, have become a standout duo who seem destined to sign with a major promotion one day.

After getting a stamp of approval from Alex Windsor, Reed and Vaughan could make for a potential option to become future AEW Women’s Tag Team Champions if they were to sign with the company.

5. Neon

In 2026, All Elite Wrestling signed a few CMLL stars to dual contracts that would see them perform in both promotions.

Among the stars signed were Mistico and Mascara Dorada, who are some of the biggest stars in CMLL.

Over in Mexico, Mistico and Dorada have formed one of the most popular groups in all of CMLL with Neon known as El Sky Team.

With his high flying ability and the name he has made for himself in the Mexican promotion, it would make a ton of sense if AEW decided to bring in Neon to join his El Sky Team stablemates.

4. Soberano Jr.

Another CMLL star who could potentially join the other Mexican talent that have recently signed with AEW is Soberano Jr.

‘The Prince of the Ring’ has become one of the most popular stars on the CMLL roster today due to his undeniable charisma and stunning ability inside the squared circle.

One of CMLL’s top rudos, Soberano has made a name for himself and put on spectacular matches with the likes of Mistico and Templario.

At 32 years old, it feels like the right time for US crowds to discover just how good Soberano Jr. is and could do so in All Elite Wrestling as the next dual contracted star.

3. Dani Luna

To the surprise of many fans, Dani Luna became the latest star to leave TNA Wrestling after nearly three years with the promotion.

Known by many to be one of the most versatile female stars on the roster, Luna had proven herself time and time again over the years.

With her hard hitting style in the ring and recent character change, Luna seemed on the cusp of becoming TNA Knockouts World Champion, but her time with the company is now over.

Considering everything she has accomplished in the ring around the world on the indies, Luna is someone who would be a tremendous fit for the AEW women’s division and offer something new to their ranks at this time.

2. Syuri

Back at AEW All In: Texas 2025, Syuri made her debut with the company as an entrant in the Women’s Casino Gauntlet.

Since this appearance, the former World of Stardom Champion has not made another appearance in All Elite Wrestling.

Proving herself all around the world most notably in Japan, Syuri has established herself as one of the hardest hitters and an expert striker through her extraordinary catalog of fantastic matches.

With her history with the likes of Athena and Thekla, Syuri would be fitting to add to the AEW women’s scene and could become a top contender for championship gold in no time.

1. Charlie (Dakota Kai)

At EVE: Wrestle Queendom VIII, Charlie, formerly known as Dakota Kai in WWE, made her in-ring return against AEW star Kris Statlander.

Showing absolutely no ring rust following over a year since her last WWE match, Charlie displayed the skills that made her one of the most underrated in-ring performers in the company.

After showcasing herself as someone to watch and who can contribute to any promotion, Charlie got a huge stamp of approval from Statlander as well as Will Ospreay.

Charlie signing with All Elite Wrestling feels like a massive signing that could become a notable star in the women’s division and make for a formidable opponent for just about anyone on the roster today.
