>>11955328Shidabro here, I've been thinking about something WWE said that doesn't sit right with me. They talk about wanting to pluck young talent from AEW and exchange it for their old, broken-down talent - like WWF vs. WCW in the 90s. The problem with that is, I don't think WWE knows how deep the AEW talent pool is.

And that point is, that for all the shit AEW has done, neglecting or ignoring the signing and developing of young talent is absolutely not one of them.
