Anna Jay’s contract situation with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has been clarified following persistent rumors about her potential exit. The 27-year-old wrestler, who has been off television for several months, is scheduled to make a public appearance soon, emphasizing her continued affiliation with AEW.
Since joining AEW in 2020, Anna Jay has played an important role in the promotion’s women’s division. Her last televised match was on an episode of AEW Collision in November 2025, where she and Tay Melo, as part of the team TayJay, were eliminated from the Women’s World Tag Team Championship quarterfinals. Throughout her hiatus, speculation has mounted about a possible move to WWE once her contract expires.
Her upcoming appearance at StocktonCon in Stockton, California on February 28 and March 1 further confirms her current ties to AEW, as event organizers stated she remains signed with the organization.
“Please welcome our next Special Guest for StocktonCon Winter, presented by Utility Telecom on Feb 28- Mar 1, 2026 at Adventist Health Arena – Anna Jay! Anna is signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where she is one-half of TayJay with Tay Melo,” the announcement read.
Insights into the expiration and future of Anna Jay’s AEW deal
Although Anna Jay has not appeared on AEW programming since November 2025, her name continues to be listed on the official AEW roster. Updates from industry sources reveal her contract is approaching its end in the next few months, though no creative plans for her return have been reported.
Sean Ross Sapp, during a Fightful Select Q&A session, shared his observations about her status in AEW and potential future moves:
“I have not heard that she’s been around a bunch or anything. She hasn’t been used on TV. I haven’t heard of any creative plans or anything like that. Her deal is up in a few months, I believe. If I were NXT, I’d be trying to get her, because I think she’d be perfect for it,” Sapp reported.
This leaves fans and insiders alike uncertain about whether Anna Jay will stay with AEW or transition to another promotion such as WWE’s NXT brand once her contract concludes.
Potential implications of Anna Jay’s contract developments
Anna Jay’s contract status highlights a critical juncture in her wrestling career and AEW’s roster dynamics. Given her popularity and past contributions, her ultimate decision could impact both her professional trajectory and the women’s division across wrestling promotions. The announcement of her StocktonCon appearance reassures fans about her current affiliation, yet the looming contract expiration opens the door to future shifts in wrestling landscapes.
As her contract nears expiration, wrestling communities will closely watch for official announcements regarding renewals or transfers, shaping the competitive balance between AEW and WWE in 2026 and beyond.
