All Elite Wrestling has signed a number of former WWE Superstars over the last few years one of which happened to be Bobby Fish. However, Fish finished up with All Elite Wrestling in August and it was rumored that he tried to get his Undisputed Elite stablemates Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly to leave the company as well.
Fightful Select recently reported that the rumor was vehemently denied by AEW sources, and that there have been no talks between Fish and WWE. Bobby Fish recently discussed the rumor on his Undisputed podcast while saying that it was fabricated information.
“Guess what boys, after over 25 years in the wrestling business, I don’t know how contracts work myself. What was most troublesome and amusing at the same time was how many outlets picked up on….if there’s anybody who knows that it’s totally fabricated information, it would be me, Adam, Kyle, Hunter [Triple H], the people that they’re talking about, who didn’t do any of the things. None of it is real. Even people like Jim Cornette picked it up and commented on it. Jim and I always had a great relationship. If I’m being honest, Jim hurt my feelings a little bit by believing some bulls**t about me so easily.
It is what it is, but that’s what sucks the most about it. The people that write this stuff, there is no checks and balances, there are no ramifications when you are in the wrong and they will continue to write whatever they’re going to write and it gets picked up by whomever. The fact or fiction line doesn’t matter and the whole thing is absurd. I appreciate the fact that AEW did what they did. It is no favor to me, it’s just the truth. There is no favor needed, let’s just all tell the truth.”
