Zayda Steels surprise appearance on Ring of Honor raised immediate questionsand now Tony Khan has responded directly about her status with AEW and ROH.
On a recent special Tuesday episode of ROH on HonorClub, Steel was seen in a backstage segment interacting with Leila Grey. With Final Battle looming, fans wanted clarity on whether that appearance meant she had officially signed.
During the pre-show Final Battle media call, Tony Khan was asked point-blank about Zayda Steels contract status. He didnt confirm a signingbut he didnt ignore the situation either.
Thats the first direct public comment from Khan since Steel popped up on ROH, and while it stops short of confirmation, it does show the door is open.
Previously, Fightful Select reported that AEW had shown interest in Zayda after her WWE I.D. contract expired in early October. That deal reportedly included matching rights but has since ended, making her a free agent. On the November 23 episode of The Fightful Report, Sean Ross Sapp clarified the situation further.
So while Zayda Steel has appeared on ROH and caught Khans attention, she remains unsignedfor now.
Should Tony Khan bring Zayda Steel into ROH or AEW full-time? What did you think of her segment with Leila Grey? Drop your feedback in the commentswe want to hear what you think about her next move.
