He might come in hot…

I’m thinking 6 months later.

Miro has been hot and cold. Wardlow has been a fucking mess. Thank God for Christian because Luchasauras would probably be lost too.

How many big guys have had this great long term sustained success?
Well Sheamus actually has charisma compared to Wardlow, and Wardlow isnt a former world champion. Claudio has been utilized well, Christian as you mentioned. I think it depends if TK is a fan and if he doesn't get hurt or have personal issues. I dont think personal issues will be an issue, hes a pro. So really I think it comes down to how much each company values him and is willing to shell out.

I agree with you that it comes down to who values who more. But it’s also Sheamus’ decision.

I think, once you take FCW or whatever it was at the time into account, he’s been in that system since 2005. And he’s always worn the company banner.

Realistically, AEW’s offer would have to be astronomical to get him to jump. I’m thinking $4 million a year would have to be the number

Yeah I cannot see AEW overpaying him, as I said earlier I think the situation where he goes over is more likely to be if WWE under new ownership undervalues** him.

He hasn't done this in months idk what you're talking about and if it bothers you that much put him on ignore bc everyone was debating fine even if they disagreed in this thread
Like I said if that's not the case I was in the wrong and I apologize it just didn't come off that way.

So here's a formal apology.

I'm sorry @Jeff Valley Driver

I can admit when I make mistakes.

I think the schedule could be a factor too but does Sheamus even work a ton of house shows rn? I feel like he still does but wouldn't be too surprised if he's been used more sparingly on them

This is very true. And there have been more misses than hits tbh.

But Hunter and Sheamus are boys. Hunter wanted Sheamus for his first Mania. He’s gonna go to bat for his guy.

I have no doubt he will, I don't ever expect Hunter to be the problem. I think if it was up to him he would keep everyone. That is how he was in NXT too

Either way yeah he'll definitely try and drive up his price like others did so it's just dependent on if WWE is fine with that or if he even calls their bluff and leaves if they don't match it. Cause just like Jade he'd obviously hear the current employers offer first

So I’m not too up to to date on house shows, but I’d assuming because of tenure he’s kinda in that Orton era where if he doesn’t wanna work house shows, he won’t

yeah I know Jade apparently wants more movie opportunities and it is not about money....but it is also always a bit about money and I would even go as far as she asked for a crazy amount for AEW to sign her knowing they wouldn't.

Don’t you pay a star when you know she’s worth it?

Especially when you don’t have many “mainstream” stars?
