Nightingale recently reflected on Twitter about her signing with AEW.

Fightful Select reported that their sources stated that while Nightingale had signed an official contract, it is currently not known if it is a full-time deal or a tier type deal. It was reported that as of this past summer, indie promotions did not need to have her bookings with them be approved by AEW directly.

It was also reported that the general backstage reaction over Nightingale’s signing was stated to be positive.

In regards to other signings, it was reported that several other talents also have recently signed full-time contracts with the company but have yet to receive the “#AllElite” graphic treatment, as was the case with Ari Daviari this past summer.
