AEW Has No Creative Plans For Long-Absent Duo

The future of former AEW Tag Team Champions Private Party is in question, with new reports on their status amid rumors of WWE interest.

AEW Has No Creative Plans For Long-Absent Duo

The future of former AEW World Tag Team Champions Private Party has become a subject of considerable speculation, as a new report clarifies their current standing with the company.

According to Fightful, Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen have not been involved in any creative plans for AEW since January 2025.

This creative freeze directly followed their championship loss. After winning the titles from The Young Bucks in October 2024, Private Party dropped the belts to the team of Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin. They have not appeared on AEW television since that match.

Their prolonged absence has fueled rumors that their contracts may be expiring soon. Adding to the uncertainty, reports have consistently indicated that WWE holds a significant interest in potentially signing the duo should they become free agents.

This situation places Private Party at the center of the ongoing talent competition between wrestling’s top two promotions. While the team remains under contract with AEW, their lack of usage and the reported interest from WWE have created an uncertain path forward for the homegrown tag team.
