Reported Reason Why Jake Hager Hasn't Competed In AEW Yet

Jake Hager has had a major impact since joining AEW on the pilot episode of Dynamite, but fans have noticed that the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion is yet to compete. 

According to Dave Meltzer, this is because of an agreement that the wrestling/MMA star won't compete in the new promotion until after his next MMA fight. 

Writing in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Meltzer noted: 

"His agreement was that he’s doing TV every week and taking Tuesday and Wednesdays as his days off training while training the other five days, but wouldn’t wrestle matches until after the fight to avoid the injury risk."

Hager, who competed in WWE from 2006-2017 as Jack Swagger, is currently undefeated in Bellator, boasting a 2-0 record.

The Oklahoma-native will face Anthony Garrett (4-2) at Bellator 231 on October 25 at the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, CT.
