Former AEW wrestler Brian Pillman Jr., son of the late wrestling legend Brian Pillman, seems to have a significant opportunity looming on the horizon, sparking excitement for what lies ahead in his career. Recently, news broke that Pillman's contract with AEW had expired, leaving him without an active deal with the promotion.
Subsequently, reports surfaced suggesting that he was training at the WWE Performance Center. While there's no confirmation of a WWE contract yet, it's evident that the company has shown interest and is keen on evaluating his potential.
According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter's Dave Meltzer, the timing of Pillman's potential hiring might be impacted by the ongoing merger of Endeavor and WWE, a monumental deal valued at $9 billion. Until the merger process concludes, it might be less likely for new talents to be brought in.
Nonetheless, speculation surrounding Pillman's future continues to mount.
