Scorpio Sky had not signed a new contract with All Elite Wrestling as of the 2026 All Out pay-per-view, leaving his status with the promotion unresolved as October approaches.

Sky’s existing AEW agreement had previously been reported to be due up at some point during October. The latest contractual update does not establish an exact expiration date, nor does it indicate that Sky and AEW have stopped talking. It does, however, confirm that no new deal had been finalized by the time of All Out.

“It was previously reported that Scorpio Sky’s AEW contract is up at some point in October. As of AEW All Out, he has not signed a new deal.”

The situation is notable because Sky has been connected to AEW from the company’s earliest days. He joined the roster during AEW’s launch year in 2019 and has been part of multiple important phases in the promotion’s history, both as a singles wrestler and in the tag team division.

A Founding-Era AEW Name Nears a Contract Question

Sky’s run in AEW has included championship success across more than one division. He is a two-time TNT Champion and a former AEW World Tag Team Champion, accomplishments that put him among the performers who have held major titles during the company’s first several years.

As a singles competitor, Sky’s two TNT Championship reigns remain the most prominent individual accomplishments of his AEW tenure. The TNT title has often been positioned as a focal point for weekly television, making Sky’s pair of reigns a major part of his record with the company.

His tag team résumé is also significant. Sky previously held the AEW World Tag Team Championship, adding another major title to a career that has regularly involved both individual and team-based competition. That versatility has been a recurring feature of his AEW presentation since 2019.

With his reported contract window now landing in October, the absence of a completed extension naturally creates questions about what comes next. At present, there is no confirmed announcement that Sky is leaving AEW, and there is likewise no confirmation that a fresh agreement is imminent. The clearest available point is simply that a new deal was not in place as of All Out.

Sky Remains Active in the Ring of Honor Setting

Sky has continued to wrestle recently despite the uncertainty surrounding his contract. His most recent match for the company came at the September 28 Ring of Honor taping.

That appearance is important context for the current situation. Sky was still being used in the wider AEW and Ring of Honor ecosystem late in September, close to the reported period in which his deal could be expiring. Continued appearances do not confirm a long-term resolution, but they do show that he remained active on programming heading into October.

Sky is currently associated with the SkyFlight faction. The group includes Dante Martin, Darius Martin, Matt Sydal, Leila Grey, Zayda Steel, Christopher Daniels, and Sky himself. The collection of names gives Sky a defined place within the Ring of Honor side of the broader operation, while also connecting him with both established veterans and younger talent.

Christopher Daniels’ inclusion is particularly fitting given Sky’s long history in AEW’s founding generation. Meanwhile, the presence of Dante Martin, Darius Martin, Zayda Steel, and Leila Grey provides SkyFlight with a mix of different experience levels. Sky’s role in that unit has kept him attached to an identifiable group rather than placing him outside the active roster structure.

What Is Known and What Is Still Unclear

Contract updates in professional wrestling often invite immediate speculation, especially when they involve a recognizable name whose deal is believed to be close to its end. In Sky’s case, several major details remain unconfirmed.

  • His AEW contract was previously believed to expire at some point in October.
  • He had not signed a new AEW deal as of the 2026 All Out pay-per-view.
  • An exact expiration date has not been established publicly.
  • There is no confirmed indication of whether a new agreement is being negotiated, finalized, or ruled out.
  • Sky remained active as recently as the September 28 Ring of Honor taping.

Those distinctions matter. Not having signed an extension by a specific event does not necessarily mean that a wrestler has made a decision to depart, nor does it guarantee that the sides will ultimately reach a new agreement. It means the contractual status was still open at that time.

For AEW, Sky represents more than a current faction member or a former champion. He has been present since the beginning of the promotion’s history, having arrived in 2019 as part of the launch-era roster. That length of service gives any decision regarding his future additional weight, even as the company’s roster and programming landscape have evolved over the years.

For Sky, the next contract decision will determine whether his next chapter continues in the promotion where he won both singles and tag team gold, or whether his long AEW association reaches a turning point. Nothing definitive has been announced on either front.

Championship History Adds Context to Sky’s Value

Sky’s AEW credentials are straightforward and substantial. His title history includes:

  • AEW TNT Champion: Two times.
  • AEW World Tag Team Champion: One time.

Those accomplishments reflect the range of roles Sky has held under the AEW banner. A former tag team champion who later captured the TNT title twice, he has worked in multiple competitive lanes during his time with the company. That kind of history can be important whenever a veteran performer approaches the end of a contract cycle.

Sky is 43 years old, and his recent Ring of Honor activity demonstrates that he was still competing in the period immediately before the reported October contract window. His involvement with SkyFlight also means that any eventual update could have implications for an existing on-screen group, not merely for his individual schedule.

At this stage, it would be premature to treat the lack of a signed contract at All Out as a final answer. Wrestling contracts can be resolved before, on, or after a reported expiration period, and no definitive conclusion about Sky’s destination has been established. The available update is a snapshot of where matters stood in early October: a new AEW agreement had not yet been signed.

Attention Turns to October

The immediate focus now is whether AEW and Sky reach an agreement during the month in which his contract was previously said to be ending. His long tenure, prior championship success, and current SkyFlight affiliation ensure that his status will remain worth monitoring.

Sky has been part of AEW since 2019, has held the TNT Championship twice, and has won the AEW World Tag Team Championship. He was still wrestling at the September 28 Ring of Honor taping. Yet as of All Out, his next contract with AEW had not been completed.

Until either Sky or AEW provides a formal update, the precise outcome remains uncertain. What is confirmed is that one of AEW’s founding-era talents entered October without a newly signed deal in place.
