Note on Tom Billington joining AEW
Dax Harwood said on Instagram live recently that Tommy Billington was offered an AEW contract the same night as their match in May earlier this year.
The next day, WWE called Billington’s people to see if he had interest in signing with them, and he declined.
There were rumors late last week that Billington had finally signed a contract with AEW, but multiple news outlets were unclear if it was a standardized full-time deal or if he was just being paid per-appearance.
AEW talent confirmed to Fightful Select that Billington, aka Dynamite Kid has been signed by AEW.
The second I stepped foot in the Saddledome last night for Dungeon at the Dome, I found a dime. I know my Dad was there watching my young cousin Tom Billington kill it, as he does every time he steps foot in that ring. I'm so proud of him ❤️ @Billingtons22 pic.twitter.com/ndtTrUITnl
