According to Fightful Select, indie wrestling star Lena Kross is set to join AEW, with sources within the company indicating that she has either signed a contract or will do so very soon. The report mentions that Kross gained significant attention after appearing on both AEW Collision and TNA Xplosion in the same week back in August. TNA had previously been interested in signing her earlier this year, but it seems that is no longer the case.
In 2025, Kross has been quite active on the independent wrestling scene, competing in almost 50 matches. She has performed for various promotions, including Sendai Girls in Japan, GCW, World Sport Series, Deadlock Pro, and others. In addition to her match on AEW Collision, she participated in a dark match before a ROH HonorClub taping in September.
Kross is a former WrestlePro Women’s Champion and a former Sendai Girls Tag Team Champion. There is currently no information on when Kross will make her official debut with AEW, but updates will be provided as they become available.
