When Killer Kross returned to FSW in February, he told me one of the wrestlers he most enjoyed wrestling in NXT was Austin Theory and I can see both Kross and Theory being major stars for WWE in the future. I obviously get most of my wrestling fix from Corny, but he is EXTREMELY high on both of those gentlemen.

I actually just watched the clip and they looked good together and the hour glass was a good touch. How in the world did they go from a hot act to Vince putting him in a gladiator dress or whatever. But it shows you that the talent has complete confidence in HHH (for now). I'l never watch AEW, but if HHH can make it interesting, making storylines seem resonable, won't give people stupid names/gimmicks, I may give it a try SS22 is a good starting point.

WWE with HHH at the helm... will humble TK. I don't like the WWE, but really hate AEW...so while I have bias with AEW, Im not a WWF guy either. That being said, I definitely think Dixie is going to be sweating now (even thought they really aren't a threat, although Dixie thinks they are). Unless I am missing something I take it by Dixie you mean Carter. If so, she is no longer running Impact. Anthem Sports and Entertainment own them.

It's hard to tell what TK's business plan is. Is he even concerned with gaining market share or growing his company beyond its limited hardcore fan base? And how does he do that without watering things down and possibly alienating his base?
Maybe he's content being Pepsi to WWE's Coke. But, if he's not careful, he may end up becoming RC Cola.

Great points and even better analogy! In my opinion AEW has way too many people under contract. I get that Tony Khan is trying to do by rotating people so we don't see the same wrestlers every week, BUT he needs to find a more meaningful way to do that. It's hard for the casual fan or even less hardcore fans to connect with wrestlers that they are not familiar with if the wrestlers arnt on TV consistently. That connection is the most important part. The story lines and match quality can be the best in the world but if there are no characters that people can get behind and look forward to seeing then people won't watch.

I'm guessing he knows he's tried every kind of Ex WWE wrestler signing and none of them have gained them fans, so maybe he's realized that...although I knew they'd have a limited audience when they first started. Honestly, I don't think he's ever been Pepsi. That would say he's been competition with the WWE. They've never been in compeition with the WWE besides with their C level NxT developental show. I say he's been RC all along. Whats below RC?! Great Value Cola?

I don't see why it has to be one or the other. I watch wwe and aew. Granted until this week it was Weekly highlights of wwe and just watching the ppvs but with HHH in control they seem to be moving in the right direction. Kross being back and with Scarlett is a great step forward and the possibility of Roman vs Kross is an absolute dream
