Isiah Kassidy has been doing an incredible job on his physique for the past few months. His last match in AEW was on the January 22, 2025, episode of Dynamite, where his tag team, Private Party, dropped the All Elite Wrestling World Tag Team Championship to The Hurt Syndicate.

WWE is reportedly interested in signing Isiah Kassidy alongside Marq Quen amid their AEW hiatus

Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen's AEW status has been up in the air for the past few months. It is believed that their contracts with the Jacksonville-based company are soon set to expire, and the duo could be on its way out of the promotion. A report suggested that, amid this contract status, WWE is interested in signing the former All Elite Wrestling World Tag Team Champions.

According to BodySlam.net, WWE management has been showing interest in bringing Private Party to the Stamford-based promotion.

That said, it will be interesting to see if Kassidy and Quen choose to appear in WWE or stay with All Elite Wrestling. Well, given the buzz over the past few months, a debut in the Stamford-based promotion seems like a strong possibility.
