      Why CVV why?? Why tf u wanna see a talent like will ospreay getting wasted in wwe?? Okay i know Aew is STACKED & there's not many places left but I don't wanba see his style of wrestling getting cut & getting limited due to wwe's Strict wrestling style policy. No high flying or athletic move only grounded moves, that's bs

    Honestly the wrestling world is in a place right now where you can not only create a great legacy but also make a good living without ever going to wwe.
    For this reason alone whether you like the product or not but if you’re a wrestling fan you should genuinely want other companies like AEW or NJPW to succeed because it’s simply better for the wrestlers.
    Will so far has done that, he’s crafted a great career and legacy without being in wwe I’m sure he also makes a decent buck out of it and the most important thing is that he’s happy with what he’s doing.

      Whether you like it or not, WWE is global, funded, and good for exposure. But we’re wrestling fans who know better. Success and exposure can really only go as far as the company can, and WWE has brought a lot of exposure for that. But it’s also why they are so strict, which in itself makes people want to stay away. It’s just the biggest company right now, undeniably. But of course, bigger does NOT mean better.

      Vince "wouldn't get him", WWE-ism for "Vince won't push hard someone that comes from the outside and was very famous on the outside". That's who that guy is. 90% of the outsiders have a ceiling in WWE. Among all the people that got over outside WWE, only two people are an exception to that, with defferent levels of success: Seth and AJ. I know someone will say "oh but Cody and Drew..." No, they were in WWE first. It's different, they still are "products of the WWE". Vince will never push someone who got himself over outside WWE as a top star, because in his mind means validating other companies as equals. That's how petty he is.
