Young Bucks beat Lucha Brothers in an impromptu match to end AAA Rey de Reyes, winning the AAA Tag Team championships. Match at Double or Nothing probably for the belts.

They would make good money and have great matches, no doubt. I just don't see giving up a top spot with one company to at best be behind the team that are Executive Producers. This isn't like the good brothers who are being grossly under used. It seems like it would be more of a risk to give up what they have for what might be. |

I don't get why people assumed being "used" means that they are happy. There is a ceiling for tag teams in WWE anyway. Who says they would be behind The Young Bucks in AEW anyway? I can easily see The Bucks putting over a lot of the teams they wrestle -- especially The Usos if they come in.

2) That's the thing about the "what they have" vs "what might be" - if enough people believe in what might be, it will be. Where Gallows & Anderson would just be "hey, more of our buddies are with us", a team like The Usos would be a coup in adding to "legitimacy" of being another place to work instead of having to fly to Japan, take a percieved "step down" to Impact or ROH, or pack it in and work at Home Depot. |

I’m not saying they definitely will jump. I just think it’s very surface-level to assume they are spiritually fulfilled in their work just because they are treated better than most tag teams. Hell, they’ve only made one WrestleMania main card as a team, and that was a nothing match last year.

AJ Styles has confirmed that he has signed a new contract with WWE.
So yeah, scratch that one off the wishlist. |

I am pretty #FedUp with WWE most of the time, I want a true alternate out there not filled w/ former stars from the 'E. |

Both Omega and the Young Bucks recently revealed some new details about AEW during this past weekend's Comic Con event in Chicago.
Bucks revealed AEW will do tours and house shows but nowhere close to the amount WWE does. Omega revealed talks for a tv deal reached the point where they have a deal tentatively in place. Both also revealed official announcements regarding announcers will be made within the next several weeks. Omega also revealed the style of wrestling AEW will be trying to target. Quote:

That actually endeared MJF to me a lot. He and others can use this in promos.

That's at least worthy of a running gag on BTE segments of everyone wearing Shrek ears around him.

Big national name? Could it be Goldberg? CM Punk? Alberto El Patron? Jon Moxley? Who? Who? Who?

CM Punk is not returning to wrestling.
Could see Goldberg doing a one-off tough. |

Punk could return to wrestling. It's his wheelhouse and he could get paid out the ass for it. He's got stuff to keep him busy, but doing spots for AEW here and there wouldn't be the biggest shock in the world.

Tony says he isn't going to work as an announcer for MLW, he was meeting Cody for Starrcast stuff. Excalibur was doing commentary for New Japan World recently... I think Jim Ross is likely going to be on the broadcast team, I wonder if they will bring Conrad into a spot with him as well.

Justin Roberts as the ring announcer was a no-brainer. Not really moved by Excalibur, to be honest.
