AEW has recently seen many wrestlers jump ship to join WWE, with quite a few of them joining the sports entertainment juggernaut this year. Former AEW Women's World Champion Mariah May (Blake Monroe) and former FTW Champion Ricky Starks (Ricky Saints) both signed with World Wrestling Entertainment in 2025, and they could now be joined by a tag team.

The team in question is former World Tag Team Champions Private Party. The duo of Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy has been with the promotion since its inception. With their contracts seemingly set to expire shortly, they could be in line for a move to WWE. Vince Russo addressed the same during the latest episode of Writing with Russo on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge.
Russo pointed out one huge issue that could hinder the former AEW World Tag Team Champions' careers, stating that both Kassidy and Quen weren't 'big guys'.

"From what I remember, too, I mean, Private Party are not big dudes either, right? What's going to separate them from the rest of the pack?" Russo said. [From 1:02 onwards]
Private Party has had a long run in All Elite Wrestling, which has seen them defeat The Young Bucks to win tag team gold. They held the title for 84 days before dropping it to The Hurt Syndicate's Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin on an episode of Dynamite in January 2025.

This passion led to a postgraduate degree in Journalism, which helped him pivot into becoming a sports writer. When writing, he puts the utmost importance on accuracy and thorough research.

He shifted to becoming a football writer at TV9 Digital and is now with Sportskeeda.

At the same event, he also got quick interviews with former WWE Superstar Dijak and Japanese Joshi legend Emi Sakura.
When it comes to his favourite wrestlers, Faiz has two names in mind. He loved to watch Triple H before the current WWE CCO retired, and he is a huge fan of Roman Reigns. Being a loyal fan since the Tribal Chief's SHIELD days, Faiz credits Roman's mic skills and unmatched in-ring storytelling for his mega success. When he was young, one in-ring story left a lasting impression on his mind and eventually got him hooked on WWE. That match was Shawn Michaels vs. Ric Flair at WrestleMania 24. Apart from that, he is also a fan of RAW.
