Ruby and Santana should be fine whenever they go tbh. Could see both fitting in most women's division rn

Murphy I'd love just about anywhere as well as a lower to mid card guy.

Lana can manage Miro

Black to AEW pls

Braun I'm with Sky I really don't know, think he's a good talent tho that still has some legs if booked right

The real question is: where does Braun go? His contract demands would be out of the question for anyone except AEW, and AEW's style doesn't exactly mesh with "big man who does big man matches".

I think he'd be just fine in AEW once they flush out the PC crap.

1 - Black kicks Hangman in the face after winning a number 1 contenders match?
2- Ruby Riott especially would be a wonderful addition. Idk much about garrett
3- Murphy NJPW would be perfect imo

4- Braun???? AEW just got 2 big guys though that would love to take him under their wing :draper2

It seems like the real reason for Braun Strowman being released by WWE has been revealed after the news broke earlier today.

As reported by Fightful Select, Braun Strowman signed a “monster” contract with WWE in 2019 for well into 2023, and the big money was likely a catalyst for WWE releasing him.

Sources claim the contract would see Strowman earn over $1 million per year, and for that reason people weren’t as surprised that he got released as you might have thought.


It was also noted that he himself knew it was a huge contract but was very private about negotiations until it had been finalized.

Bummed about Aleister, Murphy, and Ruby. I can see Aleister and Ruby being an asset to AEW in some form, and Buddy I can see thriving in NJPW.

Braun I could also see in NJPW as well as a big evil monster gaijin.

Lana I feel bad for because she was really trying to improve and she seemed to have a passion for it. She’ll more than likely wind up in AEW with Miro.

Santana I can see going to Impact or possibly AEW, she was a decent hand from what I remember.

I really don't think Braun is good or safe enough for NJPW btw, I think he'd get his fucking ass kicked constantly

Not a single one would be surprising to me if confirmed. Fuckin Keith Lee tho man.

Hopefully this downsizing helps them manage their talent pool better running the same amount of weekly programming as before
