So far only WWE guys have gone to AEW, and though I think AEW will be around and successful for a long time, who do you think will inevitably be the first to go to WWE?
I could see maybe a Kris Statlander doing so.

Unless they get an insane offer, why would they leave? You get creative freedom and I imagine a wayyyy less stressful backstage environment.

Once they get live crowds again, I can see the WWE offering big money to
Hikaru Shida
Riho
Yuka Sakazaki
MJF
Maybe Sammy Guevara

MJF. He is the only one that needs to go to Vince. If he's allowed to be his gimmick, the kid will be one of the best heels ever. Going to the WWE would make him worldwide instead of a small fan base favorite.

MJF has said multiple times, he has ZERO desire to ever go to WWE.

A lot of the people on the roster have shared their bad experiences with WWE, so I think the options are limited. Also, I think WWE is going to slow down on signing people pretty soon. I think they realize that they're in big trouble when their FOX contract is up, because they're not getting that much money from someone (outside of the Saudi blood money) ever again.
The biggest ones I could see are Cody and Jericho eventually going back.
The most likely ones are the Lucha Bros. I was shocked when they never signed the offer with WWE.
I hope Hager, Marvez, Angelico, Evans, and Luther sign big contracts with WWE. lol

MJF would be chasing the 24/7 title if he was in wwe. None of the roster should be looking to go to wwe. Most of the top talent are still so young and would get lost in the shuffle in wwe.

I totally agree, but I don't want to be misunderstood as being overly protective of AEW. If I were to choose a place, it'd be AEW (sounds like you'd be the same) but for some people WWE is the pinnacle. |

It's backed by a billionaire. So it's not like there is much of a financial advantage in what you'd be earning. |

Presumably it'll be someone who isn't being used to their potential or are rarely featured.
So I dunno. Peter Avalon?

And the other competing in basketball golf and a played decathlon, up for more than comedy. Or how bout when the Street profits were nothing more than SNL weekend update cosplayers. |

I swear we've had this thread before lol.
But honestly I don't think we can even remotely accurately speculate on something like this for at least another year.

I'd only want MJF - that man is money, Jimmy Havok, Shida, Penelope Ford and obviously get Jericho back. I'm surprised Jack Perry isn't in NXT, considering his Dad appeared on WWE programming before. MJF has said multiple times, he has ZERO desire to ever go to WWE. Mind showing us some proof of this? |

Jack is still super young (22) and well, he's not very big physically yet. I gotta think he wouldn't have been on NXT's real radar for a few more years at least. I know Cody or someone near the top mentioned a couple times wanting to scoop up some of those younger talents they saw a lot of potential in that weren't on WWE's radar yet, so that they could have them grow up in AEW. I think Jack, Private Party, MJF, etc were who he was referring to. |

I don't know much about Tony Khan but just looked at his net worth and it's almost three times Vince's. Interesting.

MJF has definitely talked about not having interest in WWE. Wants no part of scripted promos.
