Popular star announces wrestling hiatus after being released from AEW

Trey Miguel, a two-time TNA X Division Champion, announced a wrestling hiatus after his AEW release amid unclear reasons and absent from Rascalz AEW debut, fan speculation ongoing.

  • Trey Miguel announced on his Instagram story Sunday that he is taking a hiatus from pro wrestling, saying 'Taking a break from wrestling', after a report indicated his AEW release.
  • Last week, reports said all four members of The Rascalz were joining AEW and the group was teased on AEW television on Wednesday before debuting in a backstage Collision segment.
  • Miguel is a former two-time TNA X Division Champion and won the TNA World Tag Team Championship alongside Zachary Wentz, while the 31-year-old did not join his Rascalz teammates in 2020 when Dezmond Xavier and Wentz moved to WWE NXT as MSK.
  • The Rascalz now face a changed lineup that alters AEW and TNA booking expectations, as the faction will be without one of its mainstays for the foreseeable future.
  • The Wrestling Observer reported on Monday the decision to cut Miguel came above AEW owner Tony Khan's head, with many speculating past social posts played a role and Miguel's return timeline unclear.
