Other thing to consider is AEW is set to have a new TV rights agreement at some point next year, which is going to pay them significantly more money per year than what they are being paid now by Warner Bros/Discovery.

My TV tunes to all the stations so I don't care who goes to WWE or stays in AEW.
It is cool that the wrestlers can actually negotiate better deals for themselves now that there is a legit #2 company that is doing well and I really do hope Hunter can give WWE a creative direction that actually makes the weekly TV shows as entertaining as the PLEs tend to be.

All that being said, I do think that (contingent on Cody's push/position in the company when he comes back) Ricky Starks is probably the most likely guy to jump ship.

Yeah, I watch both so like somebody like Cody going from AEW to WWE was a big deal but it wasn’t like “wow I get to watch Cody every week now :gladbron:” cause I been watching him since the start of AEW and when he was in WWE before.

That said, the wrestlers are the big winners, there’s talent on both sides that are going to get PAID.

I think all the guys that came over are locked up for multiple years rn.

But as far as AEW Homegrown Talent jumping? Ricky Starks is on the clock.

Adam Cole ain’t going anywhere since his contract isn’t up till 2027.

Mox could be possible since his contract allegedly is up sometime this year but I doubt it.

FTR possibly.

Samoa Joe would have been good too but his contract probably at least 3 years smh.
