Former WWE talents Baron Corbin and AJ Francis reportedly were in attendance at Saturday’s AEW Worlds End 2024 event in Orlando, Florida, according to Fightful Select.
Sean Ross Sapp reported that his sources stated that Francis was seen chatting with AEW CEO Tony Khan at ringside prior to the start of the show. Francis reportedly was also seen chatting with his former Hit Row stablemate Swerve Strickland as well.
In regards to Corbin, real name Tom Pestock, Sapp reported that Corbin was also seen in attendance at the event. Corbin reportedly is still not eligible to sign with a new company for at least another month due to his current non-compete clause with WWE.

Following Fightful’s report, Francis confirmed on Twitter that he had attended AEW’s event on Saturday.
