Kofi and Creed Confirm AEW Debut Was a Joint Decision, Not a Solo Move

Kofi Kingston and Austin Creed have confirmed that their move to All Elite Wrestling (AEW) was a coordinated effort, not a solo decision by either wrestler. Following their WWE departures in May 2026, the duo debuted as 'The New Level' at AEW All In: London, where they won the AEW World Trios Championship alongside Swerve Strickland. In recent interviews, both men emphasized that they intended to join AEW together from the start, citing the shared experience of unemployment and the desire to compete in a top-tier tag division as key factors. While some critics questioned the chemistry between the former New Day members and heel-turned-face Swerve, Strickland has defended the partnership as a fresh direction rather than a replacement for Big E. The trio is set to defend their titles against the Rascalz on AEW Dynamite.

WWE Regrets Losing Kofi and Creed After AEW Debut Win

WWE is reportedly regretting the departure of Kofi Kingston and Austin Creed after the duo, now known as The New Level, won the AEW World Trios Championship in their debut at All In: London. A WWE source told WrestleVotes that the company has never felt such a disconnect with TKO, and that internal morale in Stamford took a hit when the two left in May. The pair, who had been with WWE for 20 and 16 years respectively, signed with AEW after a 90-day free-agent period, with Tony Khan admitting he hadn't budgeted for them. Their immediate success has prompted questions within WWE about whether TKO mishandled the situation.
