Feb 14, 2019I even think at 10 yes's that's way too many so to narrow it down to half that (considering who is likely based on contracts, etc) I'll go
Usos
Cesaro
Rusev
Almas
Harper
AJ and Bryan I honestly don't see leaving and again, KO signed a g.d. 5 year contract extension in 2018 so sadly he's f----- for years.

At the moment, no. But if he said if Harold shows interest in bringing him in, he has it in his deal where he can still appear for NJPWSign Language, Big Dangerous and Pinhead like this.Nov 18, 2025(This ad goes away when signing up) -

Jimmy Havoc signed! Another biggie. Loads of charisma, great character, and he'll do anything. I can see the concerned headlines and outrage from the wrestling world after the inevitable Joey Janela death match already.Epitome, Sign Language and Alpha like this.Nov 18, 2025(This ad goes away when signing up) -

- All Elite had a TV meeting yesterday that went really well.
- Two offers. Both bigger than Spike - real money, real stations. Still not signed.

I don't know what special episode it was for, but my first Impact show had a barbed wire steel cage match between Rhino and Christian in the main event. On free TV.
He was a draw.RVD, Sign Language and tomroe93 like this. -

Christian might literally be the only one, he was absolutely over in the WWE before he left. Realized he wasn't gonna be a top guy there and went to where he could be (and was) one. Remember, this was right when Edge was pegged to be a star and started moving up. Must have been hard for him to get left in the dust. Jeff/Rhino/Angle were all let go. Angle was a doped up bag of bones in the WWE, says a lot about TNA that they hired him and a lot about Angle that he got it together.
Sting is a weird one. Very quiet guy, very loyal. I don't know how much of him never going to the WWE was about his own insecurity or drive, which others who worked with him have talked about. He's said he felt like Vince only wanted him to take away from WCW as opposed to really wanting him. Sting also only wanted to be in TNA a year or two when he decided to go, then his old WCW buddies kept showing up and he was the top guy getting the money he wanted, so why leave?RVD, Sign Language and tomroe93 like this. -

This was such a brilliant move by WWE, even though it didn't work.
They would either:
A. Push the s--- out of the Bucks by bringing them in with an Invasion angle...then after 6 months, once the angle was run it's course, do whatever they want with them because the contract was already been renewed.
B. Bring them in as big stars, push them for 3 months, but the second they sense The Bucks are starting to get unhappy and will probably leave anyway...just beat them over and over again and use them to get other talent over for the remaining 3 months.
Can totally see WWE doing one of those two things lol
So glad they didn't even take the chance of going there for even 6 months.Raziel, Sign Language and Pinhead like this. -

The worldwide infrastructure of WWE is just too big to tackle in any conceivable amount of time, but as far as vying for ratings that's in the realm of possibility now. Guys (esp Jericho) wouldn't be signing for multi year contracts if they weren't guaranteed that these TV deals being offered weren't major. The goal here is to create something that lasts forever.
We just gotta hope they can get the kids/teenagers and bring old fans back. We can only draw so much from the 50 year old's who watch Raw every week. If it has major league production (which it will) on a big station, who knows who it'll attract.Red Rum, Alpha and Sign Language like this. -

Dude, I think he is the GOAT, at least for the last thirty or so years from what I've seen. Unbelievable promo across various characters, Great matches in ECW/WCW/WWE/New Japan with like a 21 year gap between his classics there. Got over in Mexico, Canada, and other Japanese companies without TV. A top draw for the mainstream fans in All Elite. 48 years old and having among his best matches. Has some b-----r modern rock songs, comes off as a superstar in every non wrestling venture he's involved himself in. If not him, for me, it's a tossup between AJ and Shawn, with AJ probably getting the edge.
The production of that All Elite Rally kinda s----d, but watching Cody/Brandi/Jericho made me realize that this group of people have an aura around them that would be impossible not to impress TV people. They come off as major stars, Hangman as well.WhiteThinDuke, Alpha and Sign Language like this. -

Man, I think that Jericho/Owens match is the one where Owens asked Vince if it was good right after and he said no. How weird is it that Jericho's last appearance in WWE for the next three years was in The Greatest Royal Rumble?
Hilarious how they removed him from their graphic and moved him to the alumni section immediately. So petty.Alpha, Sign Language and Epitome like this. -

Agreed, I believe that if those that think wrestling is faggoty were introduced to a good NJPW show/match that they would rescind their opinion at least a little bit. I feel like WWE is quite a large cause of the anti wrestling stigma
