Update On Scorpio Sky's AEW Status Following Benching Comments

AEW President Tony Khan has provided an update on the status of Scorpio Sky.

Sky recently noted that he was unsure why he has been benched by the promotion, with Khan addressing the situation during the post-Double or Nothing media scrum.

"I like Scorpio Sky. It's interesting, Scorpio Sky's name came up recently and he mentioned he was looking to come back and I have had talks with Scorpio Sky about different ideas and things we could do. In greater detail. He's someone who has been here from day one and I have a lot of respect for him and he's someone I really like. I saw that he said that, and I had talked to Scorpio Sky about doing something and we ended up going with something in a different direction. It's kind of a long story, but it would make a lot of sense in context. Maybe not now, at this time, but I do like Scorpio Sky and he's part of the roster. I had an idea for Scorpio Sky that I think was a good idea. We talked about it and it didn't work out for reasons between us, but it's a legit thing and I'm fine with it. I would like to use him for a different idea when the time is right," Khan said.

Sky last wrestled for AEW on the September 16, 2023 edition of Collision (losing to Andrade El Idolo). He hasn't appeared on AEW TV at all since August 2024.
