Apparently WWE managed to fool themselves big time in regards to signing Jerry Lawler to a new deal with the company. His previous deal expired on January 10 and it didn't seem like they were going to renew prior to AEW's official debut announcement.
WWE assumed AEW was going to make an attempt to sign Lawler and rushed to get a deal done first just to keep him away from AEW.
Turns out AEW was never interested nor did they ever contact Lawler and WWE is now stuck paying him for another 2 years out for even more money than his previous deal due to their pettiness.
