Jay White’s Recent AEW Absence Explained

Jay White hasn’t been on live AEW programming since March 13, but there’s a reason for that.

The Switchblade solidified his heel status in All Elite Wrestling during the March 13 episode of AEW Dynamite when he and The Gunns brutally attacked Darby Allin following their singles match. Bullet Club Gold also ended their short-term faction with The Acclaimed in the process.

But beyond a taped vignette on the March 20 episode of Dynamite, Jay White hasn’t been present on AEW programming. This has upset many fans who have felt the company had dropped the ball with White’s impactful moment at Big Business.

In an update from Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp (via Fightful Select), Jay White is unable to work in Canada at the moment due to his visa.

Sapp states that once AEW programming is back state side, White will be featured on the weekly shows once again.

All Elite Wrestling returns to the US on April 3 for a double taping of Dynamite and Collision in Worcester.
