Kiss signed with AEW in 2019 and largely was part of AEW Dark and AEW Dark: Elevation.

Taking to social media, Kiss gave the following statement:

4 years of living my dream, traveling, making everlasting friendships, working with my childhood heroes, growing into the human I've become right before everyone's eyes, and of course, being part of some historical events with groundbreaking wrestling promotion: AlI Elite Wrestling (AEW). I have made quite a few mistakes along the way. But I also have learned some valuable lessons, too. I am incredibly grateful for it all. In December, l'll be 30 years old with 10 years of wrestling under my belt. The fun part is: I haven't nearly touched the surface of what I am capable of. knew my journey in pro wrestling would not be an easy one, regardless of my talents. The best part of it all is that I showed people like me that anything is possible when you're working your ass off for it. It may not come easy, but it WILL come. Sometimes you have to fall all the way down to reignite that fiery passion again. So, now what? I'm the Concrete Rose, Sonny Kiss and I am a free agent. I am SO ready for this next chapter. Let's continue to break those barriers down, shatter those glass ceilings, and make Sh!t happen!

§ Where to next?

XO, Sonny

Even while under AEW contract, Kiss made various appearances at independent shows.

Kiss last wrestled at GCW Effy's Big Gay Brunch 7.
