Report: Plans for Megan Bayne To Re-Debut In AEW

Megan Bayne could soon be back on AEW programming after her tenure with the company so far has seen her compete more outside the All-Elite promotion. 

Bayne has been under contract for years with AEW and made her in-ring debut for the All-Elite promotion in a loss to Big Swole on Dark in April 2021. Unfortunately, she was sidelined with an injury that derailed her role in AEW. After healing up, Bayne was encouraged by AEW management to seek out bookings and has become a standout in STARDOM. 

Now, Bayne could finally be making her way back to AEW programming. Creative pitches have been made for Bayne backstage, Fightful Select reports, with one idea being for a ‘re-debut’ in the promotion. Early indications suggest that Bayne will be a heel once she resurfaces on TV. Her most recent match in an AEW ring since a dark match in 2023. 

The 25-year-old Bayne has been back in the United States for several months now and has been taking bookings at with GCW, Limitless Wrestling, and other independent promotions. There has been interest in her possibly joining other companies but it is unclear if any offers have been made at this time. 

Bayne has faced Nyla Rose and Thunder Rosa during her AEW career. 

If Bayne is to rejoin AEW programming she will be part of a much different roster than when she debuted for the company in 2021. At this time, ‘Timeless’ Toni Storm and Willow Nightingale dominate AEW’s Women’s division as the Women’s World Champion and TBS Champion respectively. Other notable names to have arrived in recent months include Mina Shirakawa, Mariah May, and Mercedes Mone.
