Welcome along to the latest rendition of Sportskeeda Wrestling’s AEW News & Rumor Roundup. Today, we are looking at stories involving major All Elite Wrestling stars Adam Cole and Chris Jericho, to name a few.

Fans of Adam Cole may want to skip this, as some disheartening news about his future in wrestling has surfaced. Meanwhile, former WWE talents made a surprising debut in the Jacksonville-based promotion, and absent AEW legend Chris Jericho has confirmed his next major appearance. We’ve got some amazing stories coming out of All Elite Wrestling today, so without further ado, let’s get this roundup underway.

#4. There have reportedly been no developments in Adam Cole’s AEW status

Adam Cole has unfortunately been absent from active competition for the past seven months. The Panama City Playboy’s last in-ring match was set for the All In: Texas pay-per-view in 2025, where he was slated to face Kyle Fletcher to defend his TNT championship. However, in a shocking turn of events, Cole had to step away due to a severe concussion. This recent setback adds to a long list of unfortunate health issues for the former TNT champion throughout his AEW tenure.

Fans hoping for an imminent return will be disappointed by the latest reports from Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, who noted that Cole’s status remains unchanged. According to the report, Tony Khan refuses to compromise Cole’s health or rush his recovery just to get him back on television, especially after observing how returning too early for backstage or commentary roles negatively impacted stars like Kenny Omega and Bryan Danielson. The report also confirmed that Cole has been dealing with post-concussion syndrome during his hiatus.

#3. Primo and Epico (The Colons) make shocking debut in Ring of Honor

The tag team division in Tony Khan’s Ring of Honor witnessed a surprise arrival during the latest television tapings in Jacksonville, Florida. Former WWE talents Primo and Epico, collectively known as The Colons (aka Eddie and Orlando), made their shocking debut for the promotion. The ex- WWE tag team champions wasted no time making an impact, squaring off against the current ROH World Tag Team Champions, Sammy Guevara and The Beast Mortos, in their very first match for the company.

For those unaware, The Colons have been absent from major mainstream television for quite some time, having departed the Stamford-based WWE in 2019, more than six years ago. Since their release, the duo has remained active on the independent wrestling scene and even made appearances in TNA Wrestling last year, where they competed against the Hardy Boyz. It will be interesting to see how they get on in ROH.

#2. Chris Jericho announces appearance at major meet and greet in Texas

Chris Jericho has been one of the most talked-about names in wrestling recently, despite being absent from AEW television since April 2025. Le Champion has spent his extended hiatus touring with his band, Fozzy, and participating in numerous meet-and-greets. While many fans speculated that his AEW contract had expired in December 2025, recent reports clarified that the promotion froze his contract when he took time off for his music tour, meaning he remains on the official roster and is not a free agent.

Despite his contract status, rumors regarding a potential WWE return continue to swirl as WrestleMania 42 approaches. Amidst this speculation, Jericho took to Instagram to officially announce his next public appearance, confirming he will be at the BIG TEXAS TERROR event for meet-and-greets on March 6, 7, and 8.

#1. Tehuti Miles (fka Ashante Adonis) quietly joined AEW

According to recent reports from Fightful Select, All Elite Wrestling has quietly secured the services of another former WWE Superstar. Tehuti Miles (fka Ashante “Thee” Adonis in WWE) has reportedly been under contract with Tony Khan’s organization for several months. The exact date of his signing is not known, but the acquisition marks another addition to the growing roster. Miles had been a free agent since his second departure from WWE in August of last year, when his contract officially expired.

Although Miles has yet to make an official on-screen appearance, he has already resurfaced in Ring of Honor. Reports confirm that he competed during the recent ROH television tapings in Jacksonville, Florida. During the tapings, he squared off against the masked veteran Serpentico. Moving forward, it remains to be seen how the promotion will use him.
