Tsurutagun Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) We're forgetting that it's not necessarily going to be a WWE Hall of Famer. My money is on that Tony is going by the Observer Hall of Fame metric That means only one thing.

Lesnar lives in Canada, I'm not sure how easily he'd be able to travel (and, more importantly, travel back) under current restrictions. I'm sure he'd be perfectly happy quarantining, though. I agree that we shouldn't just be thinking about the WWE Hall of Fame. I think Show just the used the term "Hall of Fame" to refer to a level of stardom rather than meaning they're literally in, or eligible to be in, a Hall of Fame. Either that or it's a bait and switch and it's a UFC Hall of Famer or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Dad is insanely rich but there's not a price Vince wouldn't pay to keep Brock off AEW TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Supremo Posted March 4, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted March 4, 2021 Tony Khan on AEW Unrestricted podcast: “A major star in the world of wrestling—a huge, huge star—is going to come and sign a multi-year contract with AEW on Sunday at the Pay-Per-View. So I can confirm what Paul [Wight] said is true.” “Major star?” “Huge, huge star”? Well, it’s obvious, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Chris B Posted March 4, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted March 4, 2021 I'm going to go total long-shot and say John Cena. Because if I'm right, I'll lord it over the lot of ye for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it's not Sabu. I'll send Chris B a fiver if it's John Cena. Edited March 4, 2021 by gmoney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d-d-d-dAz Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) I genuinely don’t know who it could be that wouldn’t be a disappointment. Who the fuck even qualifies as ‘huge, huge’ and is within their orbit? multi-year deal suggests they expect to get some mileage out of it, so I can’t imagine it’ll be Kurt Angle. RVD maybe fits the bill but doesn’t quite live up to the hype. Christian would be disappointing. Could they have got into Batista? Would it be Kane? What’s Jeff Hardy’s deal at the minute? It’s interesting, if nothing else. Edited March 4, 2021 by d-d-d-dAz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members FLips Posted March 4, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted March 4, 2021 Batista isn't a bad shout. I think there's only a handful of names that would be worth hyping to this extent. You don't get your freshly signed Paul Wight to spend his debut hyping up a new signing, and then have Tony Khan hype it majorly online unless it's worth it. Christian and RVD are not worth it. In terms of massive names we have Cena, Batista and Lesnar. Another one could be Goldberg but fuck that. Is Rhonda Rousey a free agent? What about Undertaker?
