Derby City Wrestling has now claimed that Mack has signed with AEW in an advertisement for an upcoming match between Mack and Aaron Williams which will take place on Sunday, April 16, 2023.

During his appearance on April 4, Exclaibur stated "Willie Mack had "recently joined the roster."

However, Mack corrected those on Twitter who congratulated him on signing, noting that unless an All Elite graphic is shown or it comes from him, it's not official.
