It’s a great time to be part of the pro-wrestling world where the competition is really high. WWE used to be the king of the jungle starting from the 90s and it still is. But they can almost feel the pressure given by a newly opened promotion in the form of All Elite Wrestling. Backed by a billionaire, it reportedly has a huge future to which superstars are looking forward.

Previous reports suggested that this is the only promotion that can go toe-to-toe against WWE in terms of money. So numerous superstars under contract with WWE might be looking forward to shifting brands in the near future. This does not come as a good indication as WWE officials might be really concerned about the rise of the rival brand.
Wrestling Observer suggested the following on WWE roster that may give Vince McMahon headache,
“There are a few who are tight with AEW management or who are really into wanting to be featured and create a legacy of being top stars and feel that’s not going to happen with them on the main roster who have at least some interest. There are also some in NXT who feel they are more likely to be used well in AEW than the main roster who have expressed interest. A few are leaning toward going when their deals are up, and others are taking a wait-and-see.”
We can’t ignore the threat that All Elite Wrestling is coming up with the biggest pro-wrestling brand in the world. They have already created a roster that has a variety of names all around the globe. If they can deliver the upcoming Double or Nothing PPV right then there’s a chance that the spotlight will be on them. This, in turn, could attract the bigger names of WWE to shift from their current brand.
All Elite Wrestling has names like Chris Jericho, Kenny Omega, Cody Rhodes, The Young Bucks, Hangman Page, PAC and more under their banner. Now they are targeting names like Dean Ambrose who is leaving WWE. They might have already offered a 6 million dollar contract to him. Sasha Banks is the next name under consideration now that she is unhappy with WWE. Who knows which WWE superstars are willing to follow their footsteps in the near future.
