Lio Rush Signs With Universal Music Group

Lio Rush was just getting started in AEW, but then he vanished. The Man of the Hour just recently announced his contract is running up, but he already has a new deal.

The free agent has now attained some sizable success in completely another direction than Pro wrestling. Rush took to Twitter to announce that he has signed with Universal Studios, Thump Records and Virgin Music as an artist.

Today I signed a deal with @UMG #UniversalMusicGroup , @ThumpRecords and @virginmusic

Lio definitely has some musical chops and he received praise on Twitter from the likes of Taya Valkyrie and SW3RVE The REALEST. Before making the announcement, he tweeted to ask his fans to stay tuned.

Rush is already on his way out from AEW though he is under contract until Feb 24th. Prior to the announcement of his free agency, Rush had not been seen in AEW programming in weeks. As he is also already announced for a TERMINUS Wrestling show, let’s see how his journey as a free agent goes.
