AEW has been rearranging its roster lately. While Tony Khan is taking these measures to improve the company's overall product, a few names will unfortunately be let go. All Elite Wrestling recently released one of its most experienced personalities: Sarah Stock.
Sarah Stock was reportedly a coach and agent in AEW. Even though she is best known for her coaching and backstage roles in the Jacksonville-based company, she was once a popular in-ring competitor. Stock was born in Manitoba, Canada, in 1979. She has a background in Muay Thai kickboxing, and before becoming a professional wrestler, she took part in track and field, soccer, horseback riding, and more. In 2002, she made her in-ring debut on the Canadian independent circuit.
The 46-year-old went on to perform in promotions such as AAA, CMLL, Shimmer Women Athletes, and TNA. She enjoyed considerable success in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, as she won the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Championship twice. From 2015 to 2020, she was signed to WWE, where she worked as a developmental trainer. All Elite Wrestling signed her in 2023, but this stint concluded this week.
