Earlier, it was reported 3 stars were removed from their website. Jimmy Havoc, Sadie Gibbs, and Bea Priestley are no longer listed on AEW’s website.
Havoc was suspended indefinitely after allegations were made in the #SpeakingOut movement. AEW announced they were helping Havoc with rehab, but he had not officially been fired.
Sadie Gibbs and Bea Priestley haven’t been seen on AEW during the pandemic. It appears at least one of these ladies has been officially released from the company.
Afraid so. Due to circumstances

This will surely be met with a lot of skepticism by AEW distracters. There has been a ton of criticism over the past few weeks for AEW’s booking of its women’s division.
Releasing a talented wrestler like Gibbs is sure to bring out lots of comments. Gibbs appears to be taking it in stride and has posted a positive comment thanking AEW for the opportunity.
My journey it’s been one hell of a ride, I never expect it to get easier I just expect my core values and perception to evolve and for me always to find #GRACE within moving forwards. #UNDEFINABLE
Thankyou so much @TonyKhan @AEWrestling for giving me a chance of a life time 🙏🏼

When this pandemic is over, it’s very likely we could see Gibbs land on her feet in another wrestling company. IMPACT Wrestling is quietly building one of the best and deepest women’s rosters in all of wrestling. Gibbs seems like she would be a great fit there.
Whatever the case, WrestleTalk would like to wish Gibbs nothing but the best wherever she lands next. There is no official word on the status of Priestly or Havoc. WrestleTalk will keep you updated as information becomes available.
