Malakai Black's future in All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has become a subject of intense speculation, with rumors swirling that he may be parting ways with the promotion sooner than expected. Initially, AEW President Tony Khan reassured fans that Black was under contract until 2027. However, recent reports, particularly from wrestling insider Dave Meltzer of the "Wrestling Observer," suggest that his contract situation may be more precarious than previously thought.

Meltzer indicated that the atmosphere in the AEW locker room is one of uncertainty, stating, "Nobody expects him back." This sentiment has been echoed by other sources within the organization, leading to growing doubts about Black's status. Interestingly, WWE is reportedly considering bringing him back, further fueling the speculation surrounding his departure from AEW.

Fans have noticed subtle hints during AEW programming that may allude to Black's exit. Julia Hart, formerly associated with Black's faction, the House of Black, made a comeback without any mention of the group. Additionally, during a recent episode of "AEW Dynamite," Buddy Matthews faced Will Ospreay in a match where Ospreay took a dig at Matthews and Brody King, suggesting they didn't need a leader, hinting at a potential shift away from the House of Black.

As the drama unfolds, both AEW and WWE fans are left to wonder: Is this the end of Malakai Black's journey with AEW, or is there more to the story? The wrestling world is watching closely as the circumstances continue to evolve. Stay tuned for updates as they develop!
