AEW has had its first wave of releases and it comes in the form of three of their British talents. Fans initially noticed that the profiles for Sadie Gibbs, Bea Priestley, and Jimmy Havoc had been removed from the AEW roster page. Gibbs has since confirmed that she was released when she replied to a fan on her Instagram page.
AEW Releases Gibbs & Priestley, Havoc Reportedly Gone Too
Gibbs has since tweeted out this message:
My journey it’s been one hell of a ride, I never expect it to get easier I just expect my core values and perception to evolve and for me always to find #GRACE within moving forwards. #UNDEFINABLE
Thankyou so much @TonyKhan @AEWrestling for giving me a chance of a life time 🙏🏼

Bea Priestley has also tweeted that her journey with the company has come to an end.

Neither woman had featured all that heavily for the AEW Women’s division with Gibbs barely getting an opportunity to perform on TV while Priestley was busy working full time with Stardom. Before Covid-19 hit, Priestley was gearing up to feud with Nyla Rose but the international travel restrictions put a stop to that and neither Gibbs nor Priestley have been seen since.
Jimmy Havoc has not commented on his removal from the roster page although Fightful did report he was released. This would not come as a surprise as Havoc had been caught up in the SpeakingOut movement which seen him get sent to rehab by AEW. The company has seemingly parted ways with him and if Pollyanna is to be believed Havoc could be facing jail time.
