Pat Buck, who produced the WrestleMania 38 main event between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar, announced he was leaving WWE back on April 4th, 2022. In the announcement, Buck cited that he was leaving the company because he felt like he had accomplished everything he wanted to do in WWE within his three year run as a producer.

Less than two weeks later, PWInsider first reported that Buck was backstage at AEW in New Orleans, the location of that week’s Dynamite, and would be joining the company in a producer/coach role.

Now, Buck himself has seemingly confirmed as much with his latest Twitter post.

Buck is also returning to running his Create-A-Pro school, which is where current AEW stars like MJF, Bear Bronson and Smart Mark Sterling all have trained in the past.

Back at it with @CreateAPro training already. Mind sharp, body/wind rusty. Lucky I had two great sparring partners in @NoSteakAllSizzl and Babyman. Who’s tougher? You decide. pic.twitter.com/hjfEEhYuAg
