3 WWE stars who have nothing left to do and must join AEW
There is no doubt that WWE is the most influential professional wrestling promotion of all time. Over the years, it has given fans several memorable moments which is spoken of fondly to this day.
In the current day and age, the company's roster is brimming with talent. However, many fans believe that the locker room is immensely bloated. There are just way too many wrestlers and it is becoming hard to utilize each one of them properly. Ever since AEW's inception, many WWE Superstars have jumped ship, like Swerve Strickland, Edge (Adam Copeland), Sasha Banks (Mercedes Mone), and more. In addition, most of them have achieved immense success in the Jacksonville-based promotion.
Many believe that there are some WWE Superstars who have nothing left to do and must switch to AEW for their own good. Here are three of them.
#3. Is AEW ready for Asuka?
Asuka is one of the greatest Japanese professional wrestlers of all time. Prior to signing with WWE, she won numerous championships across several promotions in her native country. Furthermore, she has one almost all top prizes in the Stamford-based promotion like the NXT Women's Championship, the Raw Women's Championship, the SmackDown Women's Championship, the Women's Tag Team Championship, and more.
Unfortunately, over the last few years, she has become a midcard act. This is mainly because the company has several new talents and they will prefer pushing them over the 43-year-old. Switching to AEW at this point in her career would help her, immensely. She could easily be the women's division's Bryan Danielson and deliver classic after classic with names such as Toni Storm, Britt Baker, Hikaru Shida, and more.
#2. The Man Becky Lynch
Becky Lynch is one of the Four Horsewomen of the company, alongside Bayley, Charlotte Flair, and Mercedes Moné (fka Sasha Banks). All four women have achieved immense success in the Stamford-based promotion, however, Moné is now signed to AEW.
Now 37, Lynch has held the Women's World Championship a staggering five times. She is one of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time, however, she is also one name who needs a change. Fans believe that she still has a lot to offer, but she could get lost in the mix because of the newer names in the company. Since joining All Elite Wrestling has worked out well for Moné, Lynch could give it a try as well.
#1. Former WWE Champion AJ Styles
AJ Syles in a legend. His exploits in TNA were legendary as in the mid-2000s he emerged as one the most beloved names in the promotion. His in-ring abilities were ahead of its time and some of his moves made fans go wild. After his TNA run ended, Styles joined New Japan Pro Wrestling, where he became an important member of the Bullet Club. Additionally, he became one of the few non-Japanese wrestlers to hold the prestigious IWGP Heavyweight Championship.
In the WWE, The Phenomenal One held the WWE Championship, the Intercontinental Championship, the United States Championship, and more. Styles is in his late 40s and still has a lot to offer. However, Triple H will certainly intend to push newer talent. It will be a good decision if he switches to AEW after his current contract expires because he has many friends there and it simply feels right.
