All Elite Wrestling (AEW) continues to make newsworthy announcements as their “Double Or Nothing” pay-per-view later this month continues to draw closer as each day passes.
On Thursday, the promotion announced via social media that former ECW Original, WWE Superstar and Impact Wrestling star has joined the fold as a “Coach.”
With Billy Gunn’s position with AEW being labeled as “Head Coach,” it’s likely that Lynn holds a similar position. It would essentially be the equivalent of being a road agent / producer behind-the-scenes in WWE.
Check out AEW’s announcement of the signing of Jerry Lynn, as well as a reaction tweet from Frankie Kazarian to the news below.
