You don't need to invest in them, but if you watch WWE, unless you think they're doing a great job presenting and promoting the talent they have, you should want to them to have a legit competitor.

Not true at all. We've got plenty of templates to pull from. We know Vince's tendencies. It's not at all hard to predict with good accuracy how well he'd have done, and we can say with near certainty that he'd have worked under an artificial ceiling.

Talent doesn't mean much. Everyone on this roster has been squandered and positioned to stay lukewarm, and everyone except for Brock and Rousey gets the 50/40 treatment.

Any objective perspective on this concludes that the best scenario for everyone- WWE and WWE fans included-was for him to go to AEW.
