Miro Responds To Reports Regarding AEW Absence

AEW

Miro has not been seen on AEW television since the AEW All Out pay-per-view, where he teamed with Sting and Darby Allin to defeat the House of Black.

Dave Meltzer provided an update on Miro’s absence on Wrestling Observer Radio, noting that creative was given to Miro, but Miro turned it down.

Meltzer also commented on a quote from Miro’s wife CJ Perry (Lana) claiming that ‘everyone ends up back in WWE’.

Meltzer said on Miro:

“In September, Tony Khan came to Miro and he had this idea which would go to a match on the November pay-per-view (Full Gear). And he (Miro) didn’t want to do it.

“A lot of the people that come from WWE are very leery – obviously Bryan Danielson being the exception – about doing jobs. And then it becomes very difficult to book when you don’t really wanna do programs where you’re gonna lose. But anyway, they went through and now November’s over and now we’re in the new cycle and they were gonna bring him back and try to come up with ideas for him. And they very well may.

“Then his wife comes in, and says ‘Rusev Day’s gonna come back (to WWE), everybody goes back to WWE’.

“If I’m Tony Khan at this point, given everything that’s happened, and the wife of one of the wrestlers goes and says, essentially everyone goes back to WWE, it’s kinda like, why waste my time pushing this guy, I’ve got 100 guys on the roster who want to be here, and now you’ve got these guys who wanna be in WWE.

“There’s guys there, Keith Lee and (Swerve) Strickland obviously, they had chances to go back and they didn’t. And they didn’t even entertain it. But a lot of the guys wanted to leave. The guys who sign there, if they’re guys who really want to be (in WWE), and just got fired and everything but can’t wait to get hired back – I don’t know that those guys have been that beneficial.”

Miro has since responded to Meltzer’s report, simply asking:

. @davemeltzerWON, what happened between January and June ?

Meltzer was quick to respond to Miro, simply saying:

Why don’t you tell us.
