Fred Rosser took to Twitter and said that AEW wasn’t interested in him and they even turned him down twice.

Former WWE Superstar Darren Young took to Twitter and revealed this information as he kept on getting asked by fans why he hasn’t appeared for AEW.

He said that he got asked a lot why not AEW and he said well, he tried and he was told no twice. Darren Young also said that AEW wasn’t his end goal and that it has always been NJPW. He then said that he still has got a lot of work to do.
