3 AEW rumors we hope are true and 2 we hope aren't: Debut plans for Bray Wyatt scrapped, Kenny Omega's return date revealed, and more

#1 Hope is true: AEW's locker room 'high' morale following Full Gear

The recently concluded AEW Full Gear pay-per-view turned out to be one of the most successful events the company has produced this year.

From a close source, Andrew Zarian of Mat Men's podcast reported that the morale is very high in the locker room. He noted that higher-ups are extremely happy with how the 'investments' they have made in elevating homegrown talent are now seemingly paying off:

"Spoke to someone within AEW last night regarding the PPV. Morale is very high with the locker room. The investment AEW has made in its future stars is paying dividends," said Zarian.

We hope this rumor is true as it suggests a positive backstage environment in AEW. On top of that, it speaks volumes about the company's faith in their homegrown talents like MJF, Darby Allin, Sammy Guevara, and Jungle Boy, who all featured in high-profile matches on the show.

One of the key highlights of Full Gear occurred during the main event where Hangman Page defeated Kenny Omega for the World Championship. Regardless of Tony Khan bringing in multiple ex-WWE talents, there's no denying that All Elite Wrestling is looking to build its future with its home-grown talent.
