Anna Jay & Tay Melo’s Status Amid Extended AEW Television Absence

Tay Melo used to be an important part of AEW’s women’s division, but she hasn’t appeared on AEW programming since 2023. Anna Jay has also been away for several months, and now their current status has been revealed.

While speaking on the post-AEW Dynamite show, Sean Ross Sapp was asked about the absence of Anna Jay and Tay Melo from AEW programming. He responded that he hasn’t heard of any injuries affecting either of them.

Sapp explained that AEW often cycles talent in and out, aiming for a healthier balance on the roster. Taking a couple of months off isn’t unusual, but he hasn’t received any specific updates or information about their return.

“I haven’t heard of any injuries. AEW does tend to cycle people out more. There’s a healthy balance there now. Giving them two or three months off is one thing, but I haven’t heard anything specific regarding them. No injuries that I’ve heard of.”
