On the latest episode of Being the Elite, several AEW Executive Vice Presidents made an announcement. The promotion is looking to fill the role of a “librarian” character. Fans are asked to submit videos of under 60 seconds with their take on what a librarian wrestling gimmick could be.
Few details were given about what exactly the multiple AEW Vice Presidents are looking for. Perhaps, they are looking to see if someone can stand out with their creativity.
During the episode, Cody and the Young Bucks were seen reading an email regarding a potential librarian-gimmicked wrestler. The three of them weren’t sure even they could get over such a gimmick.
“Hey, fans! Boy, do we have an exciting opportunity for you!” Cody started the announcement.
“That’s right Cody,” Matt Jackson chimed in. “We have an open casting call to find the world’s first librarian. Please send in your audition to @AEWrestling’s Twitter account.”
“You can be the next librarian,” Nick Jackson said.
“Keep em under 60 seconds,” Cody added.
They noted the audition tapes could be played on a future episode of Being the Elite.
Librarian Submissions
Some submission videos have already come in for the role.
@AEWrestling What a hilarious casting?. So yeah guess what. (Sorry for the Belgian accent) But I have been studying this business for over 30 years. I am the most brilliant mind this industry has to offer. #signme #thinkaboutit #thelibrarian pic.twitter.com/egj9MUlKa4

Say a lot without saying anything at all is this librarian’s motto:

Do you have what it takes to be AEW’s Librarian? Submit your video on Twitter to @AEWrestling. It is perfectly OK to make a fool out of yourself.
