Tony Schiavone says AEW has signed Billie Starkz.
Starkz has become a breakout star on the independent scene. The 18-year old has wrestled for TJPW, GCW, Black Label Pro, and a number of other promotions. She has also wrestled on AEW Dark, and she made her AEW TV debut on AEW Battle of the Belts VI, where she unsuccessfully challenged Jade Cargill for the TBS Championship.
Speaking on his What Happened When Podcast, Schiavone briefly commented on the announcement that Nick Wayne will make his AEW debut after his 18th birthday in July. He then brought up Billie Starkz and noted that the company has signed her.
“Speaking of 18-year-olds, we just signed another 18-year-old. Billie Starkz, the girl that wrestled Jade," Schiavone said.
In recent weeks, Starkz has also wrestled on ROH and MLW TV.
