Which is somewhat proven by the fact none of the new ppl like Bron are exceptional at talking
that's why Trick is such a standout even though he couldn't wrestle worth shit at first

they prob won't win any battles but I say this because I think in 99% of cases, ppl already decided if they are staying and wwe has decided whether they keeping them or not. I seen this fun conspiracy theory that they are just pretending to let guys like drew hit FA but were always gonna re sign, but they do it this way to give the appearance that they won a free agency war
Oh, I’m not even specifically talking about people that are already there I mean like the battles for guys like Will osprey, Jay White, Okada and etc.

Don't think they'll ever have the upper hand on njpw guys w aew links tho. I do think working w tna will help getting more indie guys tho

u can learn to wrestle to a degree. U can't really teach charisma. U can teach promo structure but u can't really learn from a book how to talk n connect w ppl. U either got it or u don't imo

Yeah, which was just foolish and was like cauo TKO getting in their own way. But I do think they’re going to give WWae a little bit more discretion soon.

But ya I don't think wwe ever had a real chance at ospreay n even less so Okada as their men's track record for Japanese talent is still extremely poor

I do think new Japan specifically will have a stronger link to AEW because it really boils down to if the talent still wants to work within the same working arrangement because then they know they can still go back occasionally. But they probably are a couple of cases where I could just boil down to money in those cases that would be just has to open it up a little bit more if they want that person of course.

likely it's also "what to do u have planned for me". Clearly aew had plans for Billy n big Kazu. Clearly wwe had plans for the Tongans
