Sanchez has over six years of pro-wrestling news writing experience, covering the biggest news stories in WWE, NXT, AEW, TNA Wrestling and more. He has personally interviewed a number of top stars, producing exclusive content with the likes of AEW's Swerve Strickland and WWE's Nick Aldis.

AEW original Peter Avalon has provided clarification on his current AEW contract status.

On January 17, Avalon announced that his career status is ‘#LFG’, noting that he’s now available for all independent dates and appearances. This led to speculation that Avalon’s AEW contract had expired, before ‘The Librarian’ Leva Bates stated that wasn’t the case.

Avalon himself has now confirmed that he’s still under contract with AEW, telling Denise Salcedo on Instinct Culture :

“AEW original Pretty Peter Avalon is still with AEW, so that’s it. I am able to take outside bookings, just opening up my portfolio I guess.”

Avalon last wrestled on Dynamite in February 2021, teaming with Cezar Bononi against Cody Rhodes and Lee Johnson. Admitting that he has pitched storylines for The Wingmen for Dynamite and Rampage, Avalon said:

“Of course I want it, and we have pitched things, I think the Wingmen are perfect for Dynamite and Rampage, and of course I think I am perfect for any kind of television… so of course I want to be on it, we’ve pitched things of course. But we’re there, we’re ready, we’re able and capable and ready. I know how it works, I know what the business is and it’s a wild time in the business. Tony has got a lot of new toys that he wants to play with and feature on his shelf so yeah I’ll get mine.”
