Despite Friday Night SmackDown‘s high-profile move to Fox earlier this month and a number of reports suggesting that certain wrestlers would be getting a better push going forward, recent rumors have pointed to a decline in morale in the WWE locker room. And with All Elite Wrestling‘s success as a fledgling company in mind, several WWE superstars are reportedly considering joining the competition once their contracts come up.
In a report published on Thursday, WrestlingNews.co‘s Paul Davis started out his piece by stressing that some WWE superstars may have no problem turning down a more lucrative contract to re-sign with the company if they can get a “fair deal” with AEW. He quoted multiple unnamed WWE performers, who cited various reasons why they or their colleagues may be considering a jump to the recently launched rival promotion.
