Brian Pillman Jr has his admirers in WWE.
Reports have been circulating over the last 24 hours regarding Brian Pillman Jr being spotted at the WWE Performance Center on Thursday. This comes shortly after his AEW contract expired and he left the promotion.
Fightful Select have now provided an update on the matter, noting that Pillman was there for a “get to know you” meeting with WWE, with the company having immediate interest following his AEW exit.
Fightful Select confirmed this past week that Brian Pillman’s AEW deal expired in July after a two-year full time contract. Wrestling Observer reported that Pillman was at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando. We can confirm he was seen by numerous people there this week. When we asked WWE sources, they confirmed that as of now, Pillman had not been signed, but was working out at the facility. We’re told that what he’s doing resembles a bit of a “get to know you” meeting, and that WWE had immediate interest when he became available. We’re told that things regarding a lot of the people they bring in are being kept close to the vest, but that Pillman was in plain sight of many others at the PC.

We will have to wait and see if Pillman will be signed full time to AEW in the not so distant future.
