I wanted The Irish Nightmare to terrify the AEW Zone

Banger after Banger after Banger after Banger

 

[Green Ranger]

Hm

wasn't there rumor of him going to AEW
TKO not going to let Hunter spend all this money bring guys & girls back & bring in new people IWC wrong again

 

[Cattle Mutilation]

Only from fantasy-booking fans

 

[Green Ranger]

Only from fantasy-booming fans

damm @Finn Baller & @Rollie Forbes are fantasy boomers

I think Sheamus is gonna go to AEW

On another note, Tony Khan is rumored to be pursuing Sheamus. If Sheamus signs with AEW, I hope Tony Khan doesn't try to turn him into another lyrical miracle wrestler who just does moves without rhyme or reason.

There has ended up being a lot less movement between WWE/NXT and AEW than I thought there would be by this point when I started this thread. For the most part, everyone seems happy to re-sign with their respective company and most of the switches were largely expected.

I thought we’d see a bit of late 90s WCW stuff going on where WCW would sign old people and lose young talent to WWF. Thought we’d see that with AEW but the bleeding of young talent has largely (though not entirely) been kept in check and TK hasn’t just thrown the check book at every ex-WWE talent like he used to do.

Jade - AEW to WWE
Andrade - AEW to WWE
Lucha Bros - AEW to WWE
Spears - AEW to NXT
Page - AEW to NXT

Copeland - WWE to AEW
Ricochet - WWE to AEW
Grizzled Young Vets - WWE to AEW
MxM - WWE to AEW

And technically because he was fired…
Punk - AEW to WWE

If you want to take an overly liberal definition of WWE to AEW…

Am I missing anyone else?

Good for TNA. They need to beef up that women’s roster a bit.

They sure are signing a lot of legends deals this year

Lexis King.
If you're counting the Lucha Bros early, then you might as well add Starks to the list.

 

[Rollie Forbes]

Long overdue.

What's up with RVD? He hasn't been on AEW tv for a while, but I don't think he has a new legends contract, either. Can you check with the HR person?

Claudio? Why the distinction between WWE/NXT?
