Scorpio Sky’s time in AEW may be approaching a crossroads. The veteran has been with the company since its earliest days in January 2019, but his contract is reportedly coming due within the next few months, raising questions about his future with the promotion.
Sky has been one of AEW’s longer-tenured talents, having originally signed alongside Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian as part of SoCal Uncensored. His tenure has produced some genuine highlights — he was one half of the first-ever AEW World Tag Team Champions alongside Kazarian, and he holds two reigns as TNT Champion. But his recent run has been far quieter. After a two-year absence from television, Sky returned in July of last year and has primarily been featured on ROH programming, teaming with Dante and Darius Martin as the faction SkyFlight.
His most recent appearance on a major AEW show came at the Revolution Zero Hour in March, where he competed in the 21-Man Blackjack Battle Royal for the AEW National Championship — a match ultimately won by Jack Perry. Since then, his presence has been limited almost entirely to ROH tapings. His last match on record was a SkyFlight victory over The Frat House on an ROH on HonorClub taping on June 22, and he has gone more than two months without appearing on Dynamite, Collision, or a pay-per-view.
Sky has previously spoken publicly about a difficult stretch in his AEW career, suggesting an unnamed individual within the company had concerns about things he’d said. Tony Khan addressed those comments and pushed back on the characterization, and Sky’s subsequent return suggested the relationship had been repaired — though his booking since has remained sporadic, with just eight matches in 2026 as the year reaches its midpoint.
Christopher Daniels remains embedded in the AEW structure, serving as Head of Talent Relations while also managing SkyFlight on-screen. Kazarian, meanwhile, departed for TNA Wrestling in 2021. With Sky’s deal now winding down and his on-screen activity minimal, the coming months will reveal whether he and AEW find common ground for a new deal or whether the longtime AEW original heads elsewhere.
