Welcome along to the latest edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's AEW News & Rumor Roundup. Today, we are looking at some headline-worthy news involving top pro-wrestling stars like Triple H and Bryan Danielson, among others.

The reason behind Tony Khan's cancellation of a popular AEW show has been revealed. Meanwhile, Bryan Danielson faced serious allegations from a former All Elite Wrestling personality. At the same time, another figure from the Jacksonville-based promotion has mocked WWE CCO Triple H. All this and more as we explore the top stories in All Elite Wrestling today. So, without further ado, let's get started.

#4. RJ City reveals why Hey! (EW) was canceled

AEW personality RJ City has revealed the reason behind the cancellation of his long-running YouTube series, Hey! (Ew). The show, which became a fan-favorite for its comedic interviews and improvisational format, released its final episode after four years on the promotion's YouTube channel. While the end of the series was initially announced on social media, City later provided further explanation of how the cancellation came about in the final episode, which aired last Sunday.

According to City, Tony Khan pulled the plug after discovering that he had been funding the show directly. City stated that Khan initially believed the project was being run through a Warner Bros. Discovery college-credit internship, only to later learn that Hey! (Ew) was financially supported through the All Elite Wrestling budget.

“Welcome to Hey! (EW). I am RJ City, and my guest is nobody, because this is the final episode. Why? Multiple reasons. One, once Tony Khan found out he was actually paying for the show and it was not a WBD college-credited internship like I initially claimed, he pulled the plug faster than you could say Rampage. I guess a sign and two mugs is too much for the budget." [H/T Fightful ]

#3. Darby Allin says his future in AEW is uncertain

Darby Allin has openly addressed uncertainty surrounding his AEW future following an injury that forced him out of the 2025 Continental Classic. The Daredevil sustained the injury during his Blue League match against Kevin Knight, a bout he ultimately lost before being hospitalized. Due to the severity of the injury, he was unable to continue in the tournament.

On Collision, it was announced that “Jungle Boy” Jack Perry would replace Allin in the Continental Classic. A promo featuring Allin aired during the episode, in which he expressed evident frustration with the situation. He encouraged Perry to take advantage of the opportunity, but ended the promo by addressing his own AEW tenure, stating:

"Now I hear, Jack Perry is taking my spot. I've never seen eye to eye Jack Perry, but if you're taking my spot man, just go on win the whole thing. I hope you do. As for Darby, I don't know, don't....know."

#2. Sarah Stock accuses Bryan Danielson of corruption

Former AEW coach Sarah Stock has made a serious allegation against Bryan Danielson, adding to the ongoing public criticism she has directed at the promotion's leadership in recent weeks. Stock has claimed that Tony Khan's company has acted inhumanely toward some of its Mexican employees, and she has increasingly called attention to what she describes as systemic issues behind the scenes.

Stock recently took her criticism further, naming Bryan Danielson, Sonjay Dutt, and QT Marshall and alleging that all three were complicit in backstage corruption. In a post on X, she stated that Danielson was in a position to intervene against what she viewed as improper practices but did nothing.

"Shame on you, Daniel. You knew and you did nothing. You were in a position to put an end to it," she wrote.

#4. RJ City mocks Triple H on the final episode of Hey! (EW)

The final episode of Hey! (Ew) included another notable moment, as RJ City appeared to parody WWE’s Chief Creative Officer, Triple H. The segment occurred during City’s farewell show, during which he revisited past moments and incorporated new comedic bits featuring former guest Eddie Kingston.

In the parody segment, City attempted to adjust Kingston’s entrance routine by giving him exaggerated and comedic advice. The skit referenced Triple H’s well-documented involvement in producing talent entrances, often seen in online behind-the-scenes footage coaching WWE stars through their walkouts and poses.
