On the heels of Mark Henry revealing that he is moving on from the promotion Arn Anderson has announced that he is doing the same.
During the most recent episode of his podcast Anderson revealed that he is not continuing on with AEW.
“I want people to know I am very appreciative to having been in this business for 42 years. I have always said this business doesn’t owe me anything. I owe it everything. Here on the tail end of my career I have been very fortunate to work for AEW and Tony Khan for the last four years. I have been under contract. He is a great, great human being. He has taken the business and given it another option and a whole different category of what professional wresting is perceived to be, or will be or has been,” he began.
Anderson expressed his gratitude to everyone who works at AEW and detailed is future plans.
“The limited time I have left I want to spend with Brock (Anderson) because I think that Brock has aptitude and attitude. I think he will be a player for somebody. I just have to get him some experience and that is where I am going to devote my time. I want to develop Brock and teach him…The 31st is the last day of my contract,” he said.
Anderson joined AEW in 2019 as a backstage producer and an on-air coach and advisor to Cody Rhodes. He also did the same for his son Brock, Lee Johnson and Wardlow.
