According to wrestling veteran Bill Apter, it seems that AEW President Tony Khan may not be pushing the former WWE Superstar Big Bill, formerly known as Big Cass.
Big Bill made his All Elite Wrestling debut in 2022 and then joined The Firm and Mogul Embassy. Recently, he formed a tag team with Ricky Starks, and together, they defeated FTR to win the AEW World Tag Team Championship on an episode of Collision. This victory marked Big Bill's first major title win in Tony Khan's promotion.
However, the legendary wrestling journalist Bill Apter shared his thoughts on what might happen if the tag team of Ricky Starks and Big Bill were to break up.

"No, I think that will elevate Starks. I think Big Bill has been around for quite some time when he was with Enzo, and he's really a great guy, and he's really a great worker for someone with his height. But, I don't see them pushing him. I do see them pushing Ricky Starks," Bill Apter said. [23:46 - 24:03]
