Found the issue.

 

 

The Problem I was having was related to the serverssl profiles on the v10.x.x. The default Ciphers have now been upgraded to drop all weak encryption.

Default Profile - serverssl-insecure-compatible - Will allow the traffic with weak encryption to pass through (I would only suggest using it until you can get it fixed / replaced). You can see additional information about it here:

I hope this helps someone else!
