Since the beginning of the company All Elite Wrestling has made it a point utilize legends and Tully Blanchard happened to be one of them. It was reported back in July of 2022 that Tully Blanchard was effectively done with the promotion, and he noted on the Two Man Power Trip Of Wrestling podcast that with the exception of autograph signings his career is probably over.
“So I would imagine that my wrestling career is probably over other than doing autographs shows and things like we did in Nashville (Starrcast), although I don’t know how many retirement matches, last matches [Ric] Flair can have so…”
Tully Blanchard went on to say that his contract with the company is up and he doubts that either AEW or WWE would want him back at some point in the future.
“It was a little more complex than that (his departure from AEW/ROH was more than just a contract situation) but, my contract is up and I’m gone. I am probably done. I doubt that AEW would have me come back. I doubt that WWE would have me come back and where else would you go except those two places?”
Stay tuned for more updates on Tully Blanchard’s status as they become available.
