Mon Apr 28 19:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Former AEW Star Leyla Hirsch Returns to Wrestling After Injury and Contract Expiration

**LAS VEGAS, NV –** Leyla Hirsch, a former standout in All Elite Wrestling’s (AEW) women’s division, has returned to professional wrestling after a period of injury and contract expiration. Hirsch, who debuted with AEW in October 2020, quickly made a name for herself, even competing in a Women’s World Title eliminator match against Thunder Rosa. However, a serious ACL injury suffered in 2022 sidelined her for over a year.

Upon her return, Hirsch primarily wrestled for AEW’s Ring of Honor (ROH) brand, failing to reach the same level of prominence she enjoyed earlier in her career. Her AEW contract expired in February 2024, two months after her final match at ROH Final Battle.

Now, Hirsch is back in the ring, recently competing on the independent circuit, including a notable appearance at Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XIII on April 17th. Fans are eager to see what the next chapter holds for the talented wrestler.
