The Elite, consisting of Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, and Adam Page, have officially signed new contracts with All Elite Wrestling (AEW), according to an announcement made today. The length of the contracts was not disclosed, but Sports Illustrated confirmed that they are multi-year deals.
Notably, Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) will continue to serve as Executive Vice Presidents for AEW, a role they have held since the promotion’s inception in 2019.
AEW President, CEO, Head of Creative & General Manager, Tony Khan, expressed his excitement about The Elite’s decision to re-sign with the company:
“The Elite have been so important to the launch of AEW, with the Young Bucks going all in when I first approached them in 2018 about my dream to create an international pro wrestling promotion,” Khan said. “Shortly after that, their partners and closest friends Kenny Omega and ‘Hangman’ Adam Page joined us to formally launch All Elite Wrestling. All four of them have been instrumental to AEW’s success from the very first episode of Dynamite in 2019 through the present day. Now, as we celebrate tonight’s 200th episode of Dynamite, I’m excited to share that Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks, and Hangman Adam Page will all be staying in AEW for years to come. We look forward to celebrating the great news with fans around the world.”
