Report: Mara Sadè  Has Signed With AEW

Former WWE and TNA talent Mara Sadè  has reportedly signed with AEW.

Speculation about Sadè’s future surfaced recently when her personal website briefly listed her as being with AEW before the reference was removed. However, Fightful Select has since reported that Sadè has officially signed with the company, with sources indicating the deal had been in the works for several months.

According to the report, AEW sources had expected Sadè  to join the promotion during the summer, and her contract reportedly became effective last week. The deal is said to be a full-time salaried agreement rather than a tiered contract.

Prior to signing with AEW, Sadè reportedly held discussions with WWE after becoming a free agent and also received an offer to remain with TNA. She ultimately finished her TNA run without a contract while competing in the Knockouts Television Championship tournament, where she defeated Tasha Steelz before falling to Heather By Elegance in the quarterfinals.

Sadè began her wrestling career after signing with WWE in 2022. Performing as Jakara Jackson, she became a member of Meta-Four alongside Lash Legend on NXT before departing the company in April 2025.

She later returned to NXT through WWE’s crossover with TNA, competing under both the Jakara Jackson and Mara Sadè names before becoming a free agent.

AEW has not officially announced the signing, but Fightful’s report indicates Sadè is now under contract with the promotion.
