Archer is a big man that can wrestle at a fast pace with AEW&#8217;s smaller wrestlers. He really made big strides as a performer during the course of G1 Climax last year in NJPW and he brings something to the table that AEW doesn&#8217;t have, which is a big man that can move as well as the smaller guys, but also wrestle a more physical style when needed.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised to see more additions to the AEW roster as free agents become available in the coming weeks and months.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You can read the entire press release from AEW on Archer&#8217;s signing below:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>All Elite Wrestling today announced a multi-year deal with Lance Archer, a global professional wrestling sensation renowned for his brutal, powerhouse moves including the Blackout and EBD Claw.<\/p>\n<p>Archer, a Texas native and former collegiate quarterback, is also known by his menacing monikers &#8211; \u201cThe Murderhawk Monster\u201d and \u201cThe American Psychopath.\u201d Standing at 6\u20198\u201d and weighing in at 260 pounds, Archer\u2019s dominating stature and natural athletic prowess have defined his 20-year career.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been in the business for almost half of my life, but with AEW, I\u2019m setting my sights on the best chapter of my career so far,\u201d said Lance Archer. \u201cThis company champions the creative, competitive and electrifying environment that I\u2019ve been waiting for my whole career.
