There have been rumors of some wrestling talents leaving Tony Khan‘s promotion to join WWE instead. One of the names on the list is Ricky Starks. Since his signing at his current workplace, Starks’ matches have been scarce. While the reason behind this isn’t explained anywhere, fans have taken matters into their own hands to explain the situation.

The wrestling community online talked about the prospect of Starks walking out of AEW because of how Khan has been treating the talent. This took place after the AEW star gave an update on his health, showing that he may be in perfect health.

Fans saw Ricky Starks appear on AEW TV last time on Collision on the 30th of March this year. Since then, he hasn’t been involved in any in-ring action. Online rumors suggested that he was not showing up to perform because of an injury. Recently, he was spotted in Jacksonville but wasn’t booked at any AEW show that week. The media house reporting the same revealed that Starks was getting checked by the AEW medical team. Starks confessed the real reason behind it by replying, “Yeah, because everyone had to do their annual physical.

Fans have been wondering whether he would stay signed with the promotion as his contract with Tony Khan is coming to an end as per online rumors. So far, we don’t have any confirmation about Starks leaving AEW to join WWE. However, seeing that Tony Khan wasn’t booking him despite him appearing to be in perfect health, fans soon called out the President of AEW.
