RUMOR: WWE Interested In Signing AEW Wrestlers

They have good taste. AEW has only been around for about two and a half years now and yet they are already the second biggest wrestling promotion in the United States, if not the world. That is the kind of thing that you do not see happen every day and it is impossible to not take notice. WWE certainly has, and it seems that AEW has something that WWE would like to get.

According to the Mat Men Wrestling podcast, AEW is coming up on three years of existence, meaning that some of its wrestlers’ contracts are about to expire. As a result, there are several names that WWE is interested in signing, though it is not clear who they are or if anyone is interested in jumping. One specific name that WWE is interested in signing is Brian Pillman Jr., though Pillman only signed with AEW less than a month ago, meaning he would not be available for years.

They have good taste. Check out some of AEW’s finest:

God's Favorite Champion, Miro, Smashes His Way To Another Victory | AEW Dynamite, 6/30/21

Who Won the Epic Main Event Between MJF and Sammy Guevara? | AEW Dynamite, 6/30/21

Was Jungle Boy Able to Fulfill His Destiny Against the Champ? | AEW Saturday Night Dynamite, 6/26/21

Opinion: It is no surprise that WWE would want some AEW wrestlers and the vice versa is likely true as well. The next year or so should be very interesting as some wrestlers are indeed going to make the jump one way or another. Money will be a factor, but so will a spot on the card. This could be a lot of fun and the fact that we are getting to see it again should be fun.

Who do you want to see go where? Who will jump? Let us know in the comments below.
