The items being auctioned off were “ring-worn” AEW gear. The description for the listing notes that the seller wouldn’t be “needing” these things anymore.

The description adds that the gear was worn on Dynamite. The seller noted they wore the items in matches against the Young Bucks, Chris Jericho, Jon Moxley, MJF, and more.

It also states that the seller needs extra money this month. Noting that they would personalize an autograph on the kneepads if asked.

The eBay auctions started at $500. However, it was prematurely taken down before anyone began bidding.

Will Max appear on AEW in two months? It’s hard to say.

The eBay auction certainly could make anyone feel as Caster and AEW have parted ways. Only time will tell.
