On December 7, the final episode of RJ City’s interview series “Hey! (Ew)” aired, marking the end of a beloved comedy show on AEW’s YouTube channel where City interviewed top AEW stars with a humorous twist. The show’s cancellation led fans to speculate about City’s future with AEW, but Fightful Select clarified that City has no plans to leave the promotion. AEW had known about the show’s end for months, as the last footage featuring City and Eddie Kingston was filmed in October during AEW Wrestle Dream, and since then, City and AEW have packed in as many interviews as possible before ending the show.
In addition to “Hey! (Ew),” City also decided to conclude his long-running series “RJ City Makes Coffee in His Underwear,” which featured notable guests like WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. This move to end both shows was seen as a sort of “spring cleaning.” Moving forward, City will focus on other AEW responsibilities, such as co-hosting the “Zero Hour” pre-show alongside Renee Paquette and continuing his work on AEW’s creative team. Since joining AEW in 2023, City has played a key role in the creative process, notably contributing to the popular storyline between Tony Storm and Mariah May.
Fan Take: This update is significant for AEW fans because it reassures them that RJ City remains a core part of AEW despite the end of his shows. His continued involvement in AEW’s creative team and hosting duties promises fresh content and storylines, which is always exciting for the sport’s growth and fan engagement.
