Megan Bayne was a surprise entrant to the Casino Gauntlet match that took place on this week’s episode of Dynamite. The match, won by Toni Storm, was a number one contender match for the AEW Women’s World Championship.
Bayne has not wrestled for AEW since a dark match in 2023 and had not been on AEW programming since Dark: Elevation in 2021. Her status with AEW wasn’t fully known despite her wrestling in STARDOM and most recently GCW.
Per a Fightful Select report, Bayne is signed.
Megan Bayne is back in AEW.
Bayne appeared on the January 15 episode of AEW Dynamite in the gauntlet match. The two sides have been connected for quite some time, but she hadn’t appeared in AEW for a year and a half.
Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp was told by AEW sources that Bayne is signed to AEW for quite some time. That source said that she’d been for the duration of her absence, though sources near Bayne had claimed she was a free agent at one point. We’ll work to tidy up the details of her status previously, but the claim within AEW is she’s signed.
Based on those we spoke to, she’s expected to remain on TV.
