Mercury brings the knowledge of being a part of a "renegade" company that others cannot.

All Elite Wrestling is the new kid on the block. The company was announced at the beginning of 2019, they began promoting their first show in February and they ran their first event in May. The company has run several PPV events in the second half of 2019 and their weekly television show on TNT began just one short month ago.

While they have great minds and successful wrestlers like Tully Blanchard, Arn Anderson, Christopher Daniels, Frankie Kazarian, BJ Whitmer, Billy Gunn, Dean Malenko, and Jerry Lynn already at the helm backstage, Mercury would be an interesting fit among that group. While Malenko and Lynn both had runs in WWE and ECW (Malenko was also, of course, a staple of WCW's Cruiserweight division), Joey has an even more diverse background that he can share.

Mercury had a brief stint with ECW before they went under, has spent time all over the independents, had a short run with TNA in its early days as well as the early days of ROH. While guys like Malenko and Lynn had runs in ECW and WWE (Lynn also had a brief run about a decade ago in ROH and even won their World Championship), Mercury still may be the most well-rounded of them all. He was successful in WWE as part of a popular tag team who won the Tag Team Championship.

He has seen the ins-and-outs of independent companies and has spent time as a producer for WWE and elsewhere. He has the chops to be a valuable producer/coach/trainer for AEW, and the company, if given the opportunity, would be very wise to bring him on board.
