MLW announces the releases Aramis and Arez, claims the moves were made months ago

By Jason Powell, ProWrestling.net Editor (@prowrestlingnet)

MLW issued an online statement announcing the contractual releases of Arez and Aramis. The statement adds that MLW informed AAA, which co-signed the contracts, of the releases back in May. MLW claims that AAA officials indicated that they would relay the news to the talent. “Evidently, they did not,” reads the statement.

Powell’s POV: The MLW announcement came in response to Arez releasing his own statement in which he claimed that his request to be release was rejected by MLW’s Court Bauer six months ago. Basically, it seems like Arez and Aramis have been needlessly stuck in limbo for six months. AAA and/or MLW have some explaining to do.

MLW notified AAA in May that both Arez and Aramis were released from the MLW contracts as AAA is a co-signee on both contracts.

AAA confirmed they would relay this to talent at that time. Evidently they did not.

We wish Aramis and Arez the best with the future.
