Well both rosters being so top heavy pretty much solidifies that no matter what Okada does or how he's booked, a good position will say he's being wasted....while he's going to sleep on a bed of money
Oh for sure you’ll get that conversation no matter what but I do think with the brand split there’s a tiny bit more wiggle room to find him a top spot.

Just a smidge.

yeah idk what kenoh is on about, he's out here laugh reactioning to some posts while not engaging themselves, and now mocking the thread. not really bringing a whole lot to the conversation.
Because I have learned to not engage with overly emotionally people, because it happened once before, and I was almost doxxed. So, pardon me for not saying a whole lot or even debating. And I wasn't mocking the thread as much as simply just making a dumb joke that wasn't meant to be taken seriously. So sorry, I will leave now.

If Roman drops the belt, yes. If not , it's gonna be annoying. Surely Cody also has to change brands If he wins. Can't have 2 titles on raw

As someone that is slowly dipping my toes back in WWE and was a bigger AEW fan for the last couple years I do think I find myself wishing for a few more WWE match ups. Okada and Randy Orton? Fucking a. Him and Seth Rollins, kill me now. :trips8

How soon do you think we actually learn of a decision? Could come as soon as Feb 1st I think, maybe sooner since he's already announced to be leaving NJPW so maybe they let him negotiate anywhere now.

I'd bet at least not until after his final match in mid February though

More than likely not until after his last match.

I’m sure he’ll have a deal in place before then but probably won’t make it officially til then

If he's not at revolution he's signing with WWE I'd imagine. That's my cutoff

Also depends on how much he's enjoying the free agency I guess lmao
