Matthew Rehwoldt No Longer Taking Bookings To Wrestle, Plans To Focus On The Broadcast Side Of The Business

“The Drama King” has wrapped up his career as an active wrestler, according to a recent tweet.

On August 5, Matthew Rehwoldt, formerly known as Aiden English in WWE, announced that he will no longer be taking bookings to wrestle. Instead, he’ll focus on the broadcast side of the business moving forward.

The message is as follows:

So here you go: I will no longer be taking bookings to wrestle going forward. I’ve always been most at home with a mic in front of me and am in love with the broadcast side of the biz. I’m not sure I feel I belong in the ring anymore and this year has taught me that.

But I love what I’m doing now and am still technically a free agent so if you have a company/promotion that needs an entertaining and experienced voice on the mic hit me up! All in addition to continuing to explore esports/gaming, VO, and content! I DO ALL THE THINGS!

Rehwoldt followed up his post with another tweet and made it clear that he is not leaving wrestling; he stated that he is still working with NJPW and IMPACT Wrestling.

In recent months, Rehwoldt has been working as a commentator for IMPACT Wrestling and New Japan Pro-Wrestling. He last wrestled on the June 2 episode of IMPACT Wrestling, when he challenged Rich Swann for the IMPACT Digital Media Championship.
