Nyla Rose on Her Belief Tony Khan Is Not To Blame For Her Current Lengthy AEW Absence & ‘There May Be Some Things I Can’t Talk About’

Nyla Rose has been absent from AEW since February of 2025. During her time away from AEW programming, Rose has been working in a backstage role in AEW and has been wrestling in the indies.
