In theory, yes. It would let them trim rosters down of talent they never use anyway, and you'd think the competition would inspire better writing and in-ring work. But we're talking Vince, so no shot for significant improvement. Also, how much competition do you think Vince will see in All Elite? Impact and NJPW have been there for years and WWE barely acknowledged them, so a fledgling promotion in their eyes most likely wo'n't move the needle.
