Speaking through his official Twitter account, TNA X-Division Champion Austin Aries announced that he had signed a new contract with the company. When Aries returned to the company back in June of 2011, he had initially signed a short-term contract.

There has been interest in the past from the WWE, however they rejected him when he auditioned for WWE Tough Enough’s recent return. There’s no announcement as to the length of the new contract as of writing.
