The King Of Swing Posted May 21 Posted May 21 (edited) Also remember Enzo, making a scene at a WWE show and getting chucked out of the venue by security. Edit. Think that's what @TheScarlettChad mentioned above. Edited May 21 by The King Of Swing Quote

BarryOVega Posted May 21 Posted May 21 I still watch the clip every once in a while of Simon Gotch’s shoot where he absolutely slaughters Enzo simply because of how hilarious it is worst thing about it was Austin and pretty much everyone else who spoke about Enzo being injured in a match with The Vaudevillain’s blamed Gotch and that was him basically finished in WWE Quote
Merzbow Posted May 21 Posted May 21 Just remembered when Enzo and Cass invaded a ROH/NJPW show and no one bothered to tell the New Japan officials about it, ended up really fucking over the relationship and the pair were ditched right away. Quote
The King of Old School Posted May 22 Posted May 22 I didn't mind Enzo that much, 6 inches taller and I think he could have been a huge star. I like that he was completely different to everyone else in the way he dressed, talked etc. Shame that he was a complete twat outside of the ring though. Not sure I have much interest in him coming back. Quote
King Mal the Glorious Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Can't see it happening at all. They were treated as a joke in WWE and they're one of the top teams in AEW, they're have to be offered silly money to even consider it you'd imagine. Quote
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted May 27 Paid Members Posted May 27 (edited) I think FTR are just using that for a pay bump - I don't see them going anywhere. In AEW they are a top act, constantly pushed and given loads of matches against top level opponents, promo time, on TV every week and PPV. They will get pretty much none of that from going back to WWE. If you're an ex-WWE guy currently under AEW contract you'd have to be careful about going back after seeing how people like Malakai Black have fared. Edited May 27 by LaGoosh Quote
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted May 27 Paid Members Posted May 27 Mad that Trips has been in charge so long that this has come around again. Their deals came up previously and everyone thought the Trips pull would lure them back. I wouldn't be fussed either way. They're a solid act in AEW and generally deliver good matches and programmes. But they'd give WWE something they desperately need and open up a slot at the top in AEW. Once again, having two companies is much better for the talent. Quote
Paid Members gmoney Posted May 27 Paid Members Posted May 27 FTR are spectacular, probably the best tag team going at the minute. It's extremely unlikely they'd be able to showcase that in WWE, no matter if there's an apparent push for a respectable division. That will never last. Quote

As a singles person, I think a lot of them would still take the risk, but tag teams? Absolutely not. No point whatsoever. Quote
Cannibal Man Posted May 27 Posted May 27 seems like a waste of time to go to WWE at the moment if you arent a well known social media racist or over 48 Quote
Paid Members BomberPat Posted May 27 Paid Members Posted May 27 I don't think there's any risk of FTR going back to WWE, it's just a news story because they're in their option year. I'm sure WWE are interested, and I'm sure FTR (or their agent) would at least entertain offers from them, but unless CM Punk manages to convince them that the grass is far greener than it is (and that's assuming that Punk is happy there, which I'm starting to doubt), I don't see them going anywhere. In AEW they almost certainly get to be part of Cope & Cage's retirement match, and will be set up as the team to beat for anyone else coming in - be that New Day, Motor City Machine Guns, or anyone else in the future - while in WWE they maybe get to wrestle Fraxiom on Smackdown and then not make a PPV card for months. It's hardly an embarrassment of riches for tag team wrestling in WWE, and the biggest name teams are all still there from last time FTR were there, so it's not like there's a big clamour to see them against The Usos.

Paid Members RedTwoster Posted May 27 Paid Members Posted May 27 I’d be absolutely gobsmacked if they moved to WWE. What would they stand to gain from it? More money? Extremely doubtful. Increased prominence? Ask Motor City Machine Guns how that worked out - or even New Day after their heel turn. Job security? Again, ask New Day about that. A better schedule? Again, very unlikely. It’s no surprise that WWE would be interested in them, but it would be one of the strangest jumps ever. I can’t see it happening. Quote
