With some other free agent signees already reported and several other noteworthy stars available on the free agency market, fans could see some new names arriving in the company at the AEW Revolution event in Los Angeles.

Here are eight potential debuts at AEW Revolution 2026.

There have been several names from the independent scene who have been reportedly signed by AEW to close 2025 and start 2026.

Among the stars signed to the promotion was Lena Kross, who has been a standout from Australia.

Working on the U.S. and European independent scene, Kross has stood out with her size, look and presence.

Considering the company has had her signed for a few months now, AEW Revolution 2026 could be the perfect stage for Kross to make a major impact upon her arrival to the promotion.

At the Limitless Wrestling Rumble 2026 event, MJF defeated Alec Price to retain the AEW World Championship.

Post match, Maxwell Jacob Friedman announced that Price and his tag team partner Jordan Oliver were now “All Elite” and signed with AEW.

Following this news, the duo known as Bustah and The Brain have been well regarded as one of the best unsigned tag teams in the business today.

Price and Oliver could add a ton to the AEW tag team division in the new year and could get a grand introduction to the company at Revolution 2026 on March 15.

6. Killer Kelly

Heading into the big AMC premiere episode of Thursday Night IMPACT, there were a number of stars on the TNA Wrestling roster who announced their departure from the company.

One of those stars on the roster who has already made their exit is Killer Kelly.

The former TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Champion has always been someone who brought a unique and entertaining character to the women’s scene in the company since signing.

Kelly joining her husband Myron Reed of The Rascalz in signing with AEW would make sense and bring another addition to the women’s division following a big debut at Revolution.

Another free agent who could add a ton to the AEW women’s scene is Priscilla Kelly.

Released from WWE in May 2025, Kelly is someone who made a name for herself on the NXT brand as Gigi Dolin and is a former two-time NXT Tag Team Champion.

PK has hit the ground running since returning to the independent scene and working for multiple promotions, such as GCW, Wrestling Revolver and more.

With her experience and the fact her fiancé Zachary Wentz of The Rascalz just signed, it would make sense for the company to give Priscilla Kelly a shot with a debut at AEW Revolution 2026 to open the door for her to make an impact.

4. Shotzi Blackheart

Former WWE star Shotzi

Another recent WWE release back in May 2025 was Shotzi Blackheart. Since then, the former WWE star has been travelling all around the world to reestablish herself on the indies.

After an up-and-down run in WWE, Blackheart has become one of the hardest working talents on the independent scene.

Following her WWE exit, Blackheart has made it clear that she would be open to heading to All Elite Wrestling.

With all of her success across the indies recently, Shotzi is someone who could add a great deal to the AEW women’s division and should be worthy of a major debut on a pay-per-view like Revolution 2026 from Los Angeles.

3. The IInspiration (Cassie Lee & Jess McKay)

At the AMC premiere of TNA Thursday Night IMPACT, The Elegance Brand defeated The IInspiration to win the TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championships.

Immediately following their loss, a new report revealed that Cassie Lee and Jess McKay were now free agents after their TNA contracts expired at the end of 2025.

While many fans assume The IInspiration will return to WWE, there is always a chance AEW might want the established duo to help bolster their Women’s Tag Team Championship scene.

Wanting to add the former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, the company could give The IInspiration a massive spotlight by having them debut at AEW Revolution 2026 on March 15.

2. Karrion Kross & Scarlett

Following his loss to Sami Zayn at WWE SummerSlam 2025, Karrion Kross and his wife Scarlett announced their departure from the company after their contracts expired.

After long contract negotiations, it was clear that Kross and Scarlett wanted to stay in the company. However, the duo have since made their return to the independent scene, travelling around the world to different promotions.

With his increased popularity with the fans before his WWE exit, AEW could swoop in to sign the duo of Kross and Scarlett.

Giving them a significant debut, Kross and Scarlett could arrive in the company at AEW Revolution 2026 where they might immediately thrust themselves into the main event picture right off the bat.

1. Bullet Club War Dogs (David Finlay, Gabe Kidd, Drilla Moloney & Clark Connors)

Around this time of the year, there are many NJPW stars who see their contracts expiring and lead to some talent heading elsewhere.

The most notable names who will see their NJPW contracts expire are the Bullet Club War Dogs consisting of David Finlay, Gabe Kidd, Drilla Moloney and Clark Connors.

While Kidd has established himself on AEW television as part of The Death Riders, he could be the one to open the door for his NJPW stable to make their way to Tony Khan’s promotion.

David Finlay, Drilla Moloney and Clark Connors joining Kidd in AEW could give the company a pivotal faction that could totally rock the landscape of the company following a huge debut at Revolution 2026.
