As long as AEW is a healthy functioning company, the promotion will always be interested in bringing in ex-WWE Superstars. According to a new report, Tony Khan's company is interested in signing someone who was released from the Stamford-based promotion just a few months ago.

On the latest episode of WrestleVotes Radio on WrestleBinge, JoeyVotes and TC reported that Tony Khan's promotion is interested in a major addition to the women's division. This will likely come in the form of Isla Dawn.

Tony Khan is reportedly "heavily interested" in the 31-year-old Isla Dawn, who was released by WWE in February. While her tag team partner Alba Fyre has remained in the company and is a part of Chelsea Green's "Secret Hervice", Dawn is expected to be All Elite at some point in the near future.

Former WWE star Isla Dawn was recently at a few AEW tapings

On the same episode of WrestleVotes Radio, JoeyVotes and TC also dropped an interesting note about Isla Dawn's recent whereabouts.

The former WWE Women's Tag Team Champion recently announced her first match in the UK after five years. However, in the United States, she has reportedly been backstage in AEW.

JoeyVotes noted that Isla Dawn has been backstage for AEW tapings and that she has appeared more than just once. While it isn't a surefire sign that she is getting signed, it certainly seems to be as good a sign as any.

It's very rare that companies simply bring in talent for the sake of it, and it's possible that she was getting a feel for how things work backstage in a bit of an "observation" period while the contract negotiations were happening.

One can only imagine that showing a wrestler their potential workplace can be a motivating factor in persuading them to sign a deal. Either way, if it happens, Isla Dawn would be a major addition to the women's division that's now led by Toni Storm and Mercedes Mone.
