AEW President Tony Khan said during a media call with
reporters ahead of Redemption yesterday that he will be
granting Tay Melo her release.
News came out recently that Melo asked for her release but
was initially denied. Khan said the request was only done a
few weeks ago contrary to what was reported and took him by
surprise.
Melo last wrestled on the June 6 episode of Collision,
teaming up with Anna Jay to take on AEW Women’s Tag Team
champions Divine Dominion.
Khan added that Melo’s justification for her release was
that she wanted to step away from the business and is
planning to grant her her wish.
The Brazilian star has been wrestling for AEW since 2020
after a four-year stint with WWE.
