New AEW Signings To Debut At Double Or Nothing 2026

AEW/WWE

The upcoming AEW Double Or Nothing 2026 event will feature another star studded card, but it could also play host to some new stars arriving.

All Elite Wrestling has been quite active in the free agency market throughout 2026 so far with the likes of Tommaso Ciampa, The Rascalz, Lena Kross and others coming into the promotion.

AEW Double Or Nothing 2026 might introduce some new signings in the company in a variety of different ways on May 24.

Here are seven new AEW signings to potentially debut at Double Or Nothing 2026.

7. Priscilla Kelly

In May 2025, Gigi Dolin was one of the more notable names released from WWE in their round of talent cuts.

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

Hitting the ground running across several different promotions, PK has been one of the more active performers across the indies as of late.

Joining her real life fiancè Zachary Wentz of The Rascalz, Kelly could sign with All Elite Wrestling where she might be a logical addition to the women’s scene where she could play plenty of different roles with her arrival at AEW Double Or Nothing.

6. Killer Kelly

After a four-year stint with TNA Wrestling, it was reported that Killer Kelly’s contract had expired, ending her time with the promotion.

With her unique look and eccentric personality, Kelly is someone who offered something completely different and stood out from the pack.

Kelly signing with All Elite Wrestling would give her a new lease on her career with it being the most high profile promotion she would ever work with.

Considering her husband Myron Reed of The Rascalz recently signing, Kelly could join him and become a member of the AEW women’s division following a debut at Double Or Nothing 2026.

5. Bishop Dyer

Back in January, Bishop Dyer made a surprise appearance in a dark match ahead of an AEW Dynamite TV taping.

After having nothing but positive things to say about the experience, it may be time for Dyer to sign with the promotion sometime in the near future.

The former Baron Corbin saw his WWE contract expire in November 2024 and has since made a name for himself in Major League Wrestling.

While he seems to have a nice spot on the MLW roster, Dyer has plenty of friends in AEW who could call for his debut in the company and make an impact at the Double Or Nothing pay-per-view.

4. Killer Kross & Scarlett

After climbing up the ladder and building a groundswell of momentum in the company, Karrion Kross and Scarlett left WWE after their contract negotiations fell apart.

Since then, Karrion has gone back to his Killer Kross persona and started appearing across several different independent promotions.

More recently, Kross with Scarlett by his side captured the MLW World Heavyweight Championship and sits atop of the company.

Kross and Scarlett could make their presence felt in All Elite Wrestling where they might insert themselves right in the mix with an appearance at AEW Double Or Nothing 2026.

3. Saya Kamitani

At STARDOM All Star Grand Queendom 2026, Sayaka Kurara defeated Saya Kamitani to win the World of Stardom Championship.

This ended the historic 483-day reign for Saya Kamitani as champion and seemingly set up “The Phenex Queen” to take some time off from the promotion.

Despite the relationship between All Elite Wrestling and STARDOM over the past few years, Kamitani is one star who has not appeared on AEW programming.

Kamitani making a surprise appearance at AEW Double Or Nothing 2026 could set the stage for the former World of Stardom Champion to make a major role at Forbidden Door and become the latest dual contracted star.

2. Charlie (Dakota Kai)

At EVE: Wrestle Queendom VIII, Kris Statlander defeated Charlie to retain the EVE International Championship.

This marked the former Dakota Kai’s first in-ring match since her release from WWE in May 2025.

Since then, Charlie has also stepped into the ring with her former WWE colleague Shotzi Blackheart for House of Glory during WrestleMania 42 week in Las Vegas.

After getting a stamp of approval from Statlander and Will Ospreay, Charlie could become the latest addition to the women’s scene following a debut at AEW Double Or Nothing 2026.

1. Hiromu Takahashi

In February, New Japan Pro Wrestling announced that Hiromu Takahashi was departing from the promotion after a 16-year run.

The former five-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion is someone who has been synonymous with the company and known as one of the greatest juniors to ever step foot in the ring.

With all of his accomplishments, it is not surprising that Takahashi is a highly sought after free agent and someone that any company would be lucky to acquire.

While there have been rumors of his signing with WWE, AEW might want to swoop in to bring Hiromu into the fold for Double Or Nothing 2026 where his in-ring ability and unique character would stand out in the company.
