After AEW Revolution, Big Boom AJ confirmed that he, Big Justice, and The Rizzler have officially signed contracts with Tony Khan’s promotion. The trio, known as The Costco Guys, had already been making waves in AEW for the past few months.
Before joining AEW, AJ was already a buzz-worthy name due to his popularity as one of The Costco Guys. His AEW journey began at AEW All Out, where he made an appearance and later agreed to compete in a match. AJ faced and defeated QT Marshall at AEW Full Gear in November.
President Tony Khan kept the door open for him and his team after his successful run. AJ suffered a broken foot during his first match. Despite the injury, he continued making appearances in AEW. His appearances eventually led to another major match at AEW Revolution, where he competed in a trios tag team match.
AJ, who returned to action at AEW Revolution: Zero Hour, teamed with Orange Cassidy and Mark Briscoe against Johnny TV and MxM Collection (Mansoor & Mason Madden). The match featured several exciting moments for the fans, with Big Justice and The Rizzler also getting involved.
In the final moments, Madden attempted to strike Big Justice, but Mark Briscoe stepped in for the save. Cassidy then landed an Orange Punch on Madden before AJ, Cassidy, and Briscoe delivered a triple powerbomb for the win.
Following this huge victory, Big Boom AJ confirmed that he, Big Justice, and The Rizzler are now officially under contract with All Elite Wrestling.

During the post-show media scrum, Big Boom AJ confirmed that he, The Rizzler, and Big Justice are officially under contract with AEW. When discussing getting involved more with AEW, he stated, “How much deeper does everybody want me to get? I thought I was deep. [Laughs]. Yes, I am officially with AEW right now. I’m undefeated. I am under contract right now, as is Big Justice and The Rizzler. We are going to be here for a while. I know there are some names on the AEW roster that I might be gunning for. Some guys out there who don’t quite believe in what I believe in; the happiness, the positivity, the boom. You never know how deep this thing is going to go.” [H/T: Fightful]
While Big Boom AJ confirmed his status with the promotion, it will be interesting to see when he laces up his boots next. He also hinted at potential rivalries, expressing interest in facing certain wrestlers on the roster.
