The WWE roster has seen plenty of change in 2026, with many incomings and outgoings across Raw, SmackDown and NXT.
While AEW has made more high profile free agent acquisitions in recent months, there are still several interesting names available for WWE to potentially sign.
Here are four potential new WWE free agent signings:
The future of AEW star Dralistico has been under the microscope lately following reports of his contract nearing its end in December.
The Los Faccion Ingobernable member has added fuel to the fire by sharing a picture of himself behind jail bars on his social media, which many have perceived as an indication regarding how he feels about being in AEW.
With his brother Dragon Lee reportedly committing to a new long-term contract with WWE, it wouldn’t be a big surprise to see Dralistico join him in the company once he’s free of his AEW deal.
While Dralistico will have to wait a little longer to be free of his contract, Anthony Bowens has just hit the free agent market this month.
The former AEW World Tag Team Champion’s deal expired on October 1, and this week he seemingly teased a potential NJPW move when he shared a picture of himself outside the NJPW Dojo in California.
There has also been reports of WWE having interest in Bowens however, so “The Pride of Pro Wrestling” may very well have a few options on the table for his next career step.
Richard Holliday has been an independent standout for over a decade now, so it wasn’t massively surprising to see the former MLW star receive an invitation to a WWE tryout in February of this year.
What has been more surprising is Holliday not showing up in WWE by now, as all signs pointed towards the company bringing him in over the summer after he left his boots in the ring during a GCW show in July.
Talk of the move happening has gone quiet, so it’s difficult to know if Holliday will still be WWE bound or not at this point in time. But with WWE NXT losing several top names in 2026, the company should definitely still be considering it.
Another potential WWE signing that has gone quiet is Enzo Amore.
Along with Big Cass, Amore had been linked with a WWE return over the spring and summer, but unlike his seven foot tall former tag team partner, Amore did not ultimately end up re-emerging.
With WWE’s booking of Big Cass’ solo run leaving a lot to be desired thus far, talk of Amore returning hasn’t went away and this is something WWE are reportedly aware of.
They may want to give it a bit more time to see if Cass’ solo career can be turned around, but it does feel like eventually WWE may cave in to fan demand and bring back the former WWE Cruiserweight Champion.
