A 46-year-old wrestling personality, Sarah Stock, was recently accused by a social media user of attempting to convince AEW performers to jump ship to WWE. The Canadian star has since disputed the claim.
Stock began her journey inside the squared circle back in 2002. Over the next several years, she performed across a variety of promotions including AAA, Shimmer, CMLL, and TNA. She also wrestled for JDStar and World Wonder Ring Stardom in Japan.
In 2023, Sarah was introduced as one of AEW’s new coaches and producers. However, she was released by the Tony Khan-led promotion this past April.
Sarah recently made headlines when she voiced her criticism of a brutal spot from Jon Moxley’s “I Quit” match against Darby Allin at WrestleDream 2025. The former AEW World Champion forcefully dipped the face-painted star’s head into an aquarium full of water in a bid to weaken him. Following this, Stock found herself embroiled in a series of quarrels with dissenting voices on social media. At one point, she even defended former WWE chairman Vince McMahon despite the numerous allegations against him.
In response to a social media claim that she was fired by AEW for encouraging its talent to cross over to WWE, Sarah took to X/Twitter to clarify her past job title and dispute the accusation. She wrote:
“If you haven’t learned that you’re replicating the pattern of conformity, you may find yourself stuck in the loop forever.”
Meanwhile, WWE legend Matt Hardy also reacted to Jon Moxley’s spot at AEW WrestleDream. While Sarah Stock explicitly expressed her disapproval of Moxley dunking Darby Allin’s head under water during their match, Hardy offered a less severe assessment.
On a recent edition of his Extreme Life podcast, Matt insisted that while the spot was not the best he had seen on television, it was no more problematic than many other similarly violent spots performed across wrestling promotions.
“I saw the spot and by no means do I think that this is the worst thing that [All Elite Wrestling] has ever done. Sure, it’s not the greatest thing I’ve seen on TV but I mean you can say that from TNA, you can say that from WWE. There’ve been incidents that have happened across all these places where there’ve been controversial things that kids should not try at home,” said Matt.
It remains to be seen what lies next in Darby Allin’s ongoing blood feud with Jon Moxley on All Elite programming.
