The pro wrestling free agent market just gained three popular names at once: former AEW Tag Team Champions The Acclaimed (Max Caster and Anthony Bowens) and alongside former WWE Champion Sheamus.
October 1 marked the expiration date for multiple deals, and Fightful Select has confirmed that all three are officially eligible to negotiate and sign wherever they choose.
While Sheamus has been out of the ring since suffering an injury in November 2025, he is believed to be fully cleared to compete again after choosing to leave WWE over restructuring talks and altered contract terms earlier this year.
Meanwhile, Bowens and Caster are still listed on the AEW website roster, and insiders suggest the door is not shut on them re-signing with All Elite Wrestling. Backstage sources pointed out that recent company tragedies likely slowed down standard business talks, meaning a fresh deal to keep the popular tag team around could still materialize down the road.

Sheamus & The Acclaimed Are Free Agents Now

WWE NXT wrestler Arianna Grace (Bianca Carelli) has gone to court in Florida to secure a restraining order against coworker Keanu Carver (Kevin Robertson), backed by pages of text messages showing her begging him to stay away.
Following her petition, a judge granted a temporary stalking protection order, with a formal court hearing scheduled for later this month.
According to text messages obtained by TMZ, Grace repeatedly told Robertson she had no interest in dating him, directly warned him that showing up at her home late at night was completely out of line, and cautioned him to go away or she would reach out to third parties for help.
The records also show Robertson returning uninvited, accusing her of hosting visitors, and pushing to see if they had a future, even while acknowledging his behavior and saying he would back off.
Grace explained in the exchanges that the sleepless nights were beginning to harm her professional life and asked him to simply stop the harassment, offering that they could still maintain a civil working relationship as long as he stayed away from her home.

AEW has announced that Collision will air live from Chris Jericho’s Rock N’ Wrestling Rager at Sea for the first time on Saturday, November 7.
The special episode, reported by Chris Jericho via TMZ, will take place aboard the Norwegian Jewel during the annual wrestling-themed cruise. Tickets for the event are on sale now.

AEW Announces Special Episode Of Collision

Jim Ross has opened up about the severe physical toll brain fluid buildup took on his body over the last year before his surgery.
On an episode of Grilling JR, the legendary announcer explained that the excess fluid severely damaged his equilibrium and balance. As a result, Ross suffered multiple painful falls while trying to walk at his normal pace.
Ross detailed the long list of injuries he suffered as a result:
&#8220;They drill the hole in your skull, neurosurgeon does, and then they take excess fluid, which affects your balance and all kinds of things. I think that&#8217;s why I was falling so damn much. I didn&#8217;t have my equilibrium, and then I try to get in the same gait that I would if I didn&#8217;t have these issues. And so when I got in a hurry sometimes, that&#8217;s when Katy barred the door and I bust my a$$.
You know, I broke my wrist this last year. I messed up my groin, I messed up my knees. I broke two toes the morning of my surgery. I&#8217;m breaking sh*t right and left, man, and it&#8217;s not any fun whatsoever.&#8221;
Ross added that despite all the injuries and constant visits to doctors, keeping his sense of humor and remaining grateful has helped him stay positive through the recovery process.

Jim Ross Reveals The Long List Of Injuries Caused By His Brain Condition

Roman Reigns has revealed a hidden tool he brings into the ring to monitor his body: a Whoop fitness tracker worn right under his glove.
Speaking on Men&#8217;s Health Strong Talk, the World Heavyweight Champion explained that he tracks key biometric data during live events, shedding light on what happens to his heart rate while competing in high-stakes bouts.
Fans have seen Reigns wear his signature wrist and hand wrap for years, but few knew that hardware was tucked underneath it. When the host noted that Reigns wears a Whoop device during matches, Reigns confirmed it and praised the band for surviving the ring:
&#8220;I wear the glove, so it does kind of protect it. But still, I mean that thing gets smacked and&#8230; I hit this thing on the treadmill, yeah I abuse this thing. Whoop, well done. Good engineering, because I beat this thing up.&#8221;
Reigns uses the band mainly to watch his sleep quality and resting heart rate, which regularly dips below 40 beats per minute when resting and down to 35 beats per minute during deep sleep.
Many fans might assume that wrestling in a main event for 30 to 40 minutes would push an athlete&#8217;s heart rate through the roof. Yet Reigns revealed that his in-ring numbers are regularly lower than expected:
&#8220;It&#8217;s always lower than I expected. There&#8217;s times where it has been (high), but it won&#8217;t even be like&#8230; it&#8217;ll be like a promo and then like a crazy brawl breaks out, and then it&#8217;s like a sprint. And then that&#8217;s where like that one sprint jacked it up for me.&#8221;
Reigns explained that years of headlining major shows taught him how to keep his nervous system calm during extended bouts:
&#8220;The times that I&#8217;ve been able to just go out there and have a match, I&#8217;ve learned over the years how to manage that whole process. And that 30 to 40 minutes while I&#8217;m out there, I&#8217;ve learned how to kind of ride that roller coaster where I think I can keep my stress levels down the whole time. But depends what happens out there.&#8221;
While Reigns checks his data to catch patterns and prevent overtraining, he made it clear that intuition comes first:
&#8220;I&#8217;m the captain. I&#8217;m going to make the call. Following a few patterns, tracking a few things, a couple metrics &#8211; heart rate, sleep &#8211; these things are pretty cool. But I wouldn&#8217;t like ride or die on these metrics.&#8221;
