Willie Mack has publicly pushed back against a PWInsider report claiming he was offered a new AEW contract but turned it down some time ago. The situation came to public attention this week when Mack posted on social media about his employment situation in pointed terms, suggesting he was at risk of losing his housing due to a booker not valuing him.
“When ya boy is about to become a homeless superhero because the booker doesn’t think he’s worth the money. It’s like for two years straight I’d call every week and ask if you got anything for me? You signed, right? You still getting paid, right? I want to wrestle,” Mack wrote.
Willie Mack Calls PWInsider’s Contract Claim “Wrong” and Questions When He Turned It Down
When PWInsider subsequently reported that Mack’s AEW deal had expired and that he had turned down a new contract offer, Mack challenged the report directly. “When did I turn it down?” he responded, accompanying the message with a GIF reading “Wrong.” Mack has not appeared on AEW programming since a March 2025 edition of Collision where he lost to Wheeler Yuta. His public posts paint a picture of a performer who wants to be used and has been actively seeking opportunities — which appears to contradict the characterisation that he declined a contract offer. The situation remains unresolved with both sides presenting conflicting accounts.
