Silas Young is staying with Ring Of Honor.
"Professional Wrestling's Last Real Man" Silas Young made it clear that his contract with Ring Of Honor expired at the end of 2018.

Silas has held the ROH World Television Championship on two separate occasions and challenged Jay Lethal for the ROH World Championship in October at 'Glory By Honor XVI'.
There were rumors making the rounds that there was interest on WWE's part in Silas Young but during an interview with PWInsider, Silas stated that after the years that Ring Of Honor has given him, he is going to pay it forward and remain with the company and ink a three year deal. Here's what Silas had to say during the interview:
“There’s been a lot of news going around,” Young said. “A lot of rumors and what not about my future here in wrestling. My contract here with Ring Of Honor expires at the end of this year, 2018. Like I said, there’s a lot of rumors about WWE. I even had people coming up to me months ago saying, ‘Hey I hear you are leaving to WWE. I hear you are leaving.’ It’s always great from my perspective or any of the wrestling talents perspective to have there be interest in you, you know? In saying that, it’s good to have people talking about you when it comes to contract time. I think anyone can figure out why. With all that being said, I have decided that after five years with Ring Of Honor, five years of them investing in me, I have decided I’m going to sign a three-year contract with them.” Young revealed.
On top of Silas Young remaining in Ring Of Honor, the company just signed PCO and Brody King to exclusive deals as well.
