Two-time ROH TV champion Silas Young is expected to sign a new three-year deal with ROH according to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

We reported earlier this week that Young’s contract was set to expire at the end of the year and he seemed open to signing with WWE. He was at the Nov. 26 Raw show in Milwaukee, Wisconsin however The Observer noted that Young was only there because his son is a big WWE fan and wanted to attend. Young is also from Wisconsin and was born just outside of Milwaukee.

Young has been with ROH since 2012 but hinted that it may be time for a change during a recent interview on our WINCLY podcast.

“You can never say never in wrestling,” Young told Wrestling Inc. Managing Editor Nick Hausman about possibly ending up in WWE. “WWE’s had a thing in the past couple of years where they’ve been signing a lot of talent up. My contract’s up at the end of the year. I’m not opposed to talking to either side. When it comes down to it, it’s a business at the end of the day. You’ve gotta go with what’s best for you and your family.”

If Young does indeed sign a three-year deal with ROH, then this could signal the end of his flirtation with WWE. He is turning 40 years old soon and WWE has been trending younger in recent years.

Silas Young Signs 1-Year Contract With ROH

Pro Wrestling Sheet reports that Silas Young just signed a new 1-year contract with Ring of Honor.

Young says the deal has now been finalized and it allows him to continue taking bookings with companies outside of the United States, as long as it doesn’t interfere with ROH.

The Last Real Man adds, “It will be weird to not be wrestling every weekend, but after almost 15 years it will be nice to spend some weekends with my family and let the body rest some.”

Silas announced in July that his previous deal had expired and it was reported that the two sides were in talks. No word on what took so long for the two to hammer things out.

Young says he will be fulfilling bookings that were made prior to his signing.
