AEW has made a couple of new signings.
In an interview with PWInsider, Tony Khan revealed Anthony Bowens and Max Caster have been signed to contracts by All Elite Wrestling. Terms of the deals were not disclosed. The two will be a tag team moving forward under the name The Acclaimed.
Bowens has made a couple of appearances on AEW Dark, teaming with Lee Johnson in September and most recently teamed with Caster in a loss to the Best Friends (Chuckie T & Trent) on the October 27 episode of AEW Dark.
Caster first wrestled on AEW Dark in June, teaming with Luther and Serpentico. He also wrestled Shawn Spears in singles competition.
Bowens and Caster both took to social media to confirm the news.
