"He's a monster" - Former WWE personality Vince Russo thinks top AEW star will be successful in the rival promotion (Exclusive)
Vince Russo believes Wardlow will be successful in WWE when discussing about current AEW stars who will excel in the Stamford-based promotion.
Wardlow is the current TNT Champion, making his first victorious defense against Orange Cassidy last week on Dynamite. Several pundits have been praising Mr. Mayhem due to his sheer size and overall wrestling acumen.
During the latest episode of The Wrestling Outlaws, Russo and Road Dogg were asked which AEW stars will fit into Vince McMahon's company. The latter picked Luchasaurus due to his massive physical stature.
However, the former proceeded to choose Wardlow because of his intimidating presence and great personality in terms of being a learner.
"I think the guy that they [WWE] would go after right now would be Wardlow. Obviously, he's got the look, he's a monster but he also looks that.... he also looks like a guy that would listen and be quiet and learn.... coachable yes, so yeah, I think he would be the most valuable asset they could get from that company [AEW] right now," [6:41 - 7:04]
