AEW has signed a whole host of former WWE talents since its inception in 2019. Some have found huge success by jumping ship, such as Chris Jericho and Jon Moxley. Unfortunately, a few others have had underwhelming runs for the promotion.

These former WWE Superstars might have joined the company with certain expectations on how they will be utilized. But several of them would later realize that the grass isn't always greener on the other side.

#5. Ruby Soho has underwhelmed since debuting at AEW All Out

There were high hopes for Ruby Soho following her All Out debut. The former Riott Squad member was a surprise entrant at the event's Casino Battle Royale, which she would eventually win. After a disappointing run in WWE, the former Ruby Riott looked for a new home in the form of AEW.

The beloved sup had a groundswell of support and many fans thought she would finally win a singles title in All Elite Wrestling. However, she would go on to lose two high-profile Championship matches against Britt Baker for the Women's Championship and Jade Cargill for the TBS title. Since then, she has gradually faded into the background. It remains to be seen if Soho can bounce back in a big way this year. She is too talented to be satisfied as an undercard talent.
