A new chapter appears imminent for Isla Dawn following her WWE release, as reports indicate AEW has significant interest in signing the former champion. The interest is described as “heavy,” with the expectation that she will begin working for the promotion in the near future.
According to a report from WrestleVotes Radio, Dawn was recently backstage at an AEW television taping. The same source suggests that a contract agreement is considered imminent, positioning her as the latest former WWE talent potentially poised to join the company’s growing women’s division.
Dawn was released from her WWE contract in February 2025, where she was a two-time women’s tag team champion. Following her departure, she made a definitive statement on social media about her career, pushing back against any notion of inactivity.
“The white witch is gone. The unholy enchantress buried in the grave. Two-time tag team champion, ashes in an urn. But don’t grieve for me. Isla Dawn’s not dead yet.”

While a major promotional debut appears to be on the horizon, Dawn is not waiting to return to the ring. She is scheduled for her first post-WWE match at Northeast Wrestling’s ‘Wrestling Under The Stars’ event on July 19.
Additionally, she is booked for a match against Aleah James at the Burning Heart show on August 3. These independent bookings underscore her status as a sought-after free agent. Wrestling analysts speculate that Dawn’s supernatural persona would be a natural fit within the current landscape of AEW’s women’s division, with potential storylines involving stars like Julia Hart and Skye Blue.
