In a striking move, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has strategically penned a deal with another ex-WWE talent, augmenting their robust roster and thereby sending ripples across the wrestling community. The latest to cross the bridge is Lady Frost, known to WWE enthusiasts as Jamie Frost, joining the illustrious list of recent signees like Adam Copeland and Billie Starkz.

Lady Frost, who initially emerged on the professional wrestling scene as a developmental talent in WWE, going toe-to-toe with Asuka in a 2018 RAW episode, has actively traversed the independent circuit. With notable appearances across platforms like IMPACT and ROH, she has steadily built a commendable reputation among wrestling aficionados.

The subtle manner in which Lady Frost's contract was inked with AEW, as reported by Bodyslam, echoes the recent quiet confirmation of Billie Starkz's signing. Their respective, consistent stints with Ring of Honor prior to these announcements signal a meticulously calculated move by AEW, keenly pulling talents into their fold.

Fans Celebrate Signing

Reactions from fans were mostly jubilant, with numerous expressing their appreciation for AEW's keen eye in recognizing Frost as a solid acquisition for the promotion. Intriguingly, several fans drew parallels between WWE’s Rhea Ripley and Lady Frost, alongside nudges at Triple H for potentially overlooking her talent.

Lady Frost’s AEW Dynamite debut pit her against Taya Valkyrie, unfortunately, culminating in a defeat. Despite this setback, it was a momentous occasion, marking her initial appearance in a live TV show, preceding Valkyrie's subsequent challenge against Jade Cargill for the TBS Championship at Double or Nothing.

Even with a couple of setbacks, such as her unsuccessful bid against Kris Statlander for the TBS Championship, Lady Frost is perceived as a promising talent in AEW. Although currently entwined with AEW, her wrestling future could potentially explore continued exploits with ROH or ambitiously hunting the prime titles in AEW’s women’s division, creating a captivating narrative to watch unfold.

With AEW’s trajectory in tapping into promising and seasoned talents, the wrestling sphere waits with bated breath to witness the unfolding dramas, alliances, and intense clashes set to electrify the arena in the coming times
