AEW Officially Signs Thekla, Alex Windsor After Probation, Controversy

AEW CEO Tony Khan officially announced the signing of wrestlers Thekla and Alex Windsor to AEW contracts following probationary and trial periods. Thekla, who debuted in AEW in May 2025, was placed on a 45-day probation due to her controversial exit from Stardom, where she attacked Stardom President Taro Okada, leading to her termination. After successfully completing her probation, Thekla's contract was validated, and she has since built momentum in AEW, including a notable victory in a four-way match with a $100,000 prize. Alex Windsor, who debuted in May 2024 and scored her first singles victory in AEW during a recent taped Collision show, also secured an official contract and is slated to challenge ROH Women’s World Champion Athena soon. Both signings were publicly recognized by Tony Khan with AEW graphics and formal announcements. Thekla continues to engage in prominent feuds, signaling a significant future presence in AEW.
