It's official: Stu Grayson is no longer ALL ELITE.

Earlier this week, the Dark Order member's name was quietly removed from the roster page of AEW's website, but there was no official statement regarding Grayson's status until Friday, May 6, when Grayson took to social media to open up about his AEW departure.

"On April 30th my contract with AEW expired," Grayson confirmed. "Best of luck to everyone working for AEW, our great production and medical team and of course every man and women who steps into the ring. And to my Dark Order family, I hope the world will soon see what you are truly capable of," he added.

On May 25, 2019, at the inaugural Double or Nothing pay-per-view, Grayson and his fellow Canadian/indie wrestling veteran Evil Uno made their surprise debuts on AEW programming. Uno and Grayson had been tagging together for many years on the independent circuit under the team name Super Smash Brothers, but after signing for AEW, their schtick was tweaked. Uno kept the gimp mask, but the duo was presented as high-ranking representatives from a mysterious and nefarious organization known as The Dark Order.

It's almost three years to the day that Grayson debuted in AEW, and he's not the only AEW original to part ways with the company this year. As we covered, Joey Janela and Marko Stunt have both left the company in recent weeks.

“When we started a lot of people had contracts that were a couple of years long and a lot of them are coming up. I have really tried hard to be very considerate of the people on the roster, especially going through the pandemic," AEW boss Tony Khan said of the impending wave of AEW departures during a recent chat with Scott Fishman of TVInsider.
