Malakai Black Isn’t The Only AEW Star Who Asked For Release

AEW has certainly come far since its inception back in 2019. While it has undergone quite a few changes, not everything has been smooth sailing for the company.

As previously reported, AEW has given conditional release to Malakai Black, because of his own mental wellbeing. This came as shock for many. In fact, Black himself had asked for his release.
