Whether AEW Is Considering Working With Shane McMahon.

With his father, Vince McMahon, having resigned from WWE due to the Janel Grant lawsuit scandal, some believe 54-year-old Shane McMahon’s time in the business could also be over. Yet, earlier this week, Conrad Thompson revealed during an episode of Jim Ross’ podcast that Shane has been in touch with some of AEW’s roster to discuss the possibility of joining the promotion. Still, based on an update by Fightful Select , it currently appears that it isn’t something being considered by AEW management.

“Those that we’ve spoken to say that Shane McMahon hadn’t been brought up at a high level. There were numerous talent that inquired with us an internally about the possibility of Shane appearing in AEW, but were told that it hasn’t been something considered.”

Shane McMahon began working for WWE when he was just 15, initially in their merchandise warehouse, before becoming a referee under the name Shane Stevens. However, he eventually began going by his own name, appearing alongside his father during his feud with Steve Austin and being used as a color commentator on Sunday Night Heat. From there, he occasionally began wrestling matches, with some of them surprisingly good, although for many fans, their lasting memory of him will be when he tore his quad at WrestleMania 39.
