I’m not sure why he would have to go to AEW? I would love to see him and Bray/EC3/Strowman and others to show up in Impact or MLW. The more viable promotion the better. Owens as Steen again challenging for the world title in those promotions would have been fantastic.

You think someone would voluntarily leave a main event multi million dollar contract from the WWE to go to Impact or MLW?

If he's happy then good for him. I assume he got a very strong financial offer. I'm surprised given that they are back to the heavy touring schedule that he wouldn't chase a lighter schedule to be able to spend more time with family, but it's possible they talked about that and he won't need to tour as much for all we know.

I guess he didn't want to go to the Lollipop Guild to play with Kenny Olivier/Jazz Hands/Twinkle toes McFingerbang aka Harpo Marx, The Hardly Boys, and Adam Cole. Good to see Kevin staying in WWE. What does Jim Cornette's bunghole taste like? So. Many. Jokes. I can't type any of them here.

It’s a bummer to see a wrestler I enjoy stay in a promotion that hates wrestling.
I wish him well and hope he can cash every check promised to him

Sounds like Sami has resigned as well.

Good for Owens for getting a deal he’s comfortable with that will take care of him and his family.
From a fan perspective, kinda stinks since the WWE has shown no indication of wanting to use him as a top star, and I see him continuing to get the random world title match here and there just to put over the latest champ, but never actually being champ himself.

Oh yeah, he's definitely in a Guy Who Works with the Guy on Top spot. But he's also in the back half of his career, he's got family, and the other major American company is increasingly overstuffed with talent. If he's got any kind of protection from the Khan layoffs this probably is a good decision for him. I'd imagine he's making good money and he's always been a reliable merch mover.

As much as I’d love WWE Champion Kevin Owens, there is nothing wrong with being a main eventer for champions to beat. Piper did it. Jake did it. Wonderful did it. Not everyone needs to be the top guy. Owens had a fun run as Universal Champion too, so he’s a former World Champion. Plus, it’s a three year deal. He has time to become a champion again. The man did what he thought would be best for his family and even if WWE release him before his contract is up, he will have a guaranteed contract in AEW after 90s days.

I can't believe we're at a point where a guy like owens of all people not being champ is seen as bad.
Back in the Hogan/Bret/Austin days, you had to be a main event star to get a whiff of the belt.

Outside of money, I don't see any appeal in being in the WWE in 2021. What other appeal is needed? I only have a job because of the need of money. I'm sure most people are the same way.

I do enjoy seeing all the people telling the guy with a family making millions how to make his money despite them most likely not having a family or money.
“Money isn’t everything!”
lol ok
