We noted before how it was reported that former Impact World Champion Brian Cage has signed a new multi-year contract with All Elite Wrestling.
However, the situation regarding Cage’s status has taken an interesting turn since then and his wife has came out to deny his signing with the upstart promotion.
Melissa Santos, the wife of the former Impact wrestling star replied to the tweet featuring the original report and she claimed that Cage has not signed any contract:
Really?? How can you confirm something that isn't true???? I'm his wife and I can CONFIRM, he hasn't signed on any dotted line. @socaluncensored https://t.co/ao2EZ67PsR

It’s worth mentioning here that Brian Cage was previously booked to appear on the Double Or Nothing PPV in the Casino Battle Royal but Impact Officials had pulled him from the event.
At the time, Cage was the Impact World Champion and officials believed that it will devalue their title if their world champion made a pre show battle royal appearance for the company.
