5 WWE rumors from this week you need to know (January 14th, 2019)

#2 WWE + AEW = Good contracts!

The WWE has offered huge contracts to stars, to avoid them going to All Elite Wrestling

Ever since All Elite Wrestling was announced, fans have been speculating where certain hot talents would end up.

Would indie stars go to AEW, or ROH, or perhaps New Japan, or maybe join the Mecca of Sports Entertainment that is WWE?

But according to the Observer, wrestlers are very pleased with AEW forming, as the WWE and other companies are getting more and more competitive to sign top-tier talent.

Therefore, it seems that wrestlers on the indie scene are being offered the very best contracts available to them, with several big names being snapped up recently.

This includes former WWE World Champion Chris Jericho, who has signed with AEW, as well as indie star WALTER, who made his WWE debut at their recent NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool event.
