Don't think they did. Sounds like they tried to offer him a 'manager' role on the main roster.

They're just ****ing stupid.

If that’s true, that’s even dumber than the Twitch stuff.

I just wonder how upset Triple H is, Cole was his guy.

I'm sure Loser Hunter saw that one coming a mile away.

It's an interesting game. They are trying to see if AEW can't afford all of these guys while the Khan's are more loaded than they are.

I haven't actually sat down and watched an entire wrestling show for quite some time but I love the highlights I'm seeing from AEW. The energy and involvement from the crowd is awesome.

Same here. It's like a blast from the past. Incredible show from the vids after.

AEW needs to stop doing those big brawls, or at least do them from the hard camera only. Both times I've watched a full AEW show they've looked ****ing terrible. Kenny threw a belt shot and the camera was at the perfect angle to see just how fake it was.

If, and when this happens. I'm All Elite.

AEW should send Nick Khan a gift basket. His mentality that Vince adopted is driving out legitimate talent in droves right into their arms.

smithandrew051 09-07-2021 07:00 PM

Does anyone see the “hidden genius” in what WWE is doing?

I know they’ve made some questionable decisions over the years, but what the ****? It would take 15 minutes of browsing wrestling forums online to know how much momentum AEW has right now.

Is there some argument in support of what WWE is doing? I’m just not seeing it.

Sassy Squatch 09-07-2021 07:24 PM

From the perspective of Vince, none of the talent he's cut recently has drawn money, and NXT has been a failure in development and competing against AEW, so why not let AEW pay them all that money while we cut costs. Of course, in reality it's his fault for grievously misusing the talent and treating the talent like disposable numbers is a pretty stupid way to go about things when the upstart company is gobbling it all up and is poised better than any other wrestling company besides WWE has been in almost a quarter century.

I have seen so many people on the Internet posting this exact sentiment. I think All Out is going to be a true turning point in the industry.

BryanBusby 09-07-2021 07:55 PM

I'm starting to believe Vince is going to sell out.

Aries Walker 09-07-2021 08:59 PM

There has to be something else going on behind the scenes with WWE that we don't know about. An imminent sale is probably most likely, but otherwise it looks as if they're deliberately tanking their own company, for no reason.

smithandrew051 09-07-2021 09:03 PM

There is a funny theory floating around that Vince actually owns AEW and that this is all a ploy to recreate the Monday Night Wars by creating 2 legitimate brands.

I don’t think it would be possible to keep that secret in today’s age though.

Fun to think about anyway.
