Tony Khan clears up rumors about Ricky Starks.
Fightful Select reported on March 3 that Ricky Starks was still under contract with AEW despite rumors that his deal had expired.
At the AEW Revolution media scrum, Tony Khan was asked about the rumor.
"I don't know what the rumor is. Ricky is part of AEW. Ricky is definitely still under contract in AEW. I haven't seen that. Ricky was a big part of Sting's run, he was Sting's first match in AEW. Ricky and Big Bill, I'm very grateful, and I've said that to Ricky too, both right after the match and since, very grateful. Ricky and Big Bill, what great world tag team champions, and what a great match for Sting and Darby to win the world tag team championships. Ricky was there at the beginning three years ago, then a huge part of the title change, which set the stage for tonight. He's been here for some of the big moments. I'm very excited about having him here. He's definitely part of AEW and has been a big part of Sting's final run," said Khan.
Starks last wrestled on the February 7 episode of AEW Dynamite when he and Big Bill lost the AEW Tag Team Championships to Sting & Darby Allin.
Sting has his final match at AEW Revolution.
