Wrestling fans have been abuzz with speculation over Speedball Mike Bailey potentially debuting at AEWs upcoming Continental Classic, but we now have a clearer picture of where things stand.
According to Fightful Select, while Bailey is indeed expected to join All Elite Wrestling, his current contract situation with TNA Wrestling adds some complications.
Baileys TNA deal is not officially over, despite him wrapping up his commitments at the Detroit tapings. Initially, reports suggested that Baileys contract expired on November 1, which had fueled the rumors of his imminent AEW debut. However, it has been confirmed that his contract is actually up at the end of the year, with Bailey able to engage in discussions with outside companies as of November.
This contract wrinkle means that unless specific allowances are made, Bailey would be unable to compete in the highly anticipated Continental Classic, set to start on November 27, 2024, and wrap up at the Worlds End pay-per-view on December 28, 2024. The tournament already promises to be a must-watch, with Kazuchika Okada, the reigning Continental Champion, confirmed as a participant.
With all eyes on AEWs upcoming Continental Classic, the anticipation for Mike Baileys debut continues to grow. While the contract situation might delay his grand entrance, fans are still holding out hope for an unexpected twist. AEW has a knack for surprises, and wrestlings Speedball could be next in line to shake things up. Stay tuned to Ringside News for updatesthis storyline might just deliver a game-changing moment when fans least expect it.
