Cain Velasquez has been in recent talks with both WWE and AEW regarding him signing a potential contract with either company, ESPN’s Marc Raimondi reported.
It was also reported that both Lucha Libre AAA and New Japan Pro Wrestling have also been very interested in signing Velasquez to a potential deal. Velasquez has recently wrestled in two events for AAA and had met with NJPW officials at last month’s Super J-Cup 2019 event in San Francisco, California.
Raimondi also reported that Velasquez is also currently considering the idea of staying in UFC and signing a new contract with the company once his current contract expires.
