According to Fightful Select, EJ Nduka, the former WWE and MLW talent, has recently signed with All Elite Wrestling (AEW). Nduka had become a free agent at the beginning of 2023 when his contract with Major League Wrestling expired. He left MLW on good terms.
Fightful has learned that Nduka made his debut in AEW in January, where he faced Konosuke Takeshita. Although he hasn’t been in the ring since then, he was spotted during the WrestleMania weekend festivities. Our sources indicate that Nduka has been under some form of AEW contract for a considerable period.
Fightful had previously reported that Nduka had garnered interest from WWE, as well as wrestling promotions in Mexico and Japan. However, it is said that when James Kimball was fired from WWE, many of the potential signings he was pursuing did not progress further. AEW, on the other hand, showed immediate interest in Nduka following his debut.
While the details of Nduka’s contract with All Elite Wrestling have not been confirmed, the specifics of his deal remain undisclosed at this time.
