It has been reported that many Superstars such as Randy Orton and Rey Mysterio used deals offered to them by AEW to get better deals from WWE. It's also been noted that WWE has not been giving out raises or bonuses ever since the pandemic hit, which could result in some Superstars wanting to leave.
