My money is on Buddy.
>not really being used in AEW
>would unironically be used and pushed more in HHH's WWE as an upper midcard workhorse guy
>his girlfriend is in WWE
>stands out more in WWE because there's less guys there like him
Honorable mentions go to Malakai Black and Andrade.

100% Andrade is going to be kicking up a fuss to get the fuck out of there within 6 months.

Unironically good. AEW was way better before they went on a WWE signing blitz last year.

Yeah, my first thought was Andrade. Felt like he was going to be a huge deal, but nothing ever really came of it. With the latest news of him getting fucked over on bookings because of lucha drama, going back to WWE seems very likely.

You do realize failed WWE midcarders and jobbers are making more money in AEW for less dates right?

Andrade

He's been with AEW for over a year and don't nothing of note. I don't think he even got any kind of title shot so far.

Hikaru Shida

Triple H will 100% use her on TV regularly, since she's a great worker and speaks good English unlike the other lazy Joshi. Question is, if she wants to jump ship.

MJF

Tony Khan paying Big Show, Henry & Christian millions per year for doing nothing broke him. Might as well try his luck, it Papa Hitch pays up.

Kris Statlander

AEW takes ages to capitalize on her popularity. She's been with them for almost 3 years and she's never featured regularly or as a major player despite being one of their best workers and remaining over with the fans.

Andrade would already be trying to get out the moment HHH took over if Tony didn't just bring in his buddy Rush.

I think now that he can have much more creative leeway, Kenny. Is it guaranteed? Of course not. It would have to take a huge problem with AEW/Tony for him to jump ship. But with him considered by the wider audience as one of if not the greatest wrestler alive today, I think he'd get over pretty quickly. Just give him the program and Mania match with AJ he's been chomping at the bit for, after that maybe programs with people like Seff and eventually Cody for the championship.

They're all coming home to Papa Haitch. Every single soulless one of them. Then AEW can go back to having Joey Janela vs Jimmy Havok on Gynomite.

I think Tony will test run Los Ingobernables first then if that flops Andrade might leave

Andrade - big possibility. Going back to work with his wife and Triple H made him an NXT champ so there's a relation there as well.

Shida - unlikely. She is Omega's main squeeze. Unless Omega jumps ship she will stay in AEW.

MJF - guaranteed he jumping in 2024.

Statlander - who?

Cole is the one NXT reject I'm 100% sure isn't going, his crew is all in AEW. Atom Smol is all yours :)

I'd say its more likely you'll see AEW originals jump shit like Starks, Hobbes, Santana, Brian Pillman Jr. even though he sucks.
