5 Harsh realities about AEW that nobody wants to talk about

#2. Not every WWE superstar can sign with AEW

Shawn Spears was one of the first to jump ship

Here is the issue that most of you reading would likely have been thinking about. Now that there's this whole period of frustration, low morale, and disarray within WWE, it's been reported that there are a lot of superstars who want out of their contracts.

Thanks to AEW's instant success, WWE isn't granting people their release requests anymore. Even with fans, whenever they talk about an underutilised superstar, the first sentence is "They should go to AEW".

One must understand that AEW can't, nor should they sign every WWE talent that leaves the company. There's no point in building the company around former WWE stars who didn't cut it or were frustrated. That would be going down the TNA mid-to-late-2000s route and it would be a big mistake.

Sure, having stars like Moxley is great, but not every WWE superstar can sign with AEW.
