One of the hottest acts in the UK wrestling scene, Michael Oku, and Amira, are reportedly on the verge of joining AEW.
At RevPro Summer Sizzler on August 11th, Oku faced AEW World Champion MJF in a high-stakes match for the AEW American Championship, coming up short but leaving a strong impression on AEW fans.
According to Fightful Select‘s Corey Brennan, both Oku and Amira are expected to sign with AEW soon. While no official deal has been signed yet, insiders claim that the pair are likely to appear at AEW’s Cardiff Dynamite taping and the highly anticipated AEW All In event later this month. Sources within AEW have not confirmed the signings to Sean Ross Sapp but mentioned they wouldn’t be surprised to see the duo on the UK AEW shows.
Several talents within RevPro have expressed their hope that Oku will secure a contract with AEW, praising his talent and deserving nature. The belief that both Oku and Amira will feature prominently at All In has only fueled the speculation surrounding their potential signings.
In a post-Summer Sizzler interview with Stephanie Chase, Michael Oku confirmed that there have been discussions between himself, Amira, and AEW, adding further weight to the rumors.
As fans eagerly anticipate the official announcement, it seems like it’s only a matter of time before Michael Oku and Amira make their mark on AEW.
