AEW is building a massive roster

Tony Khan and co. has stepped up their hiring game. The company has often targeted pro-wrestlers who have either quit WWE or the company released them from their contracts.

Some of the huge names who signed with AEW after WWE are Sting, Rusev (Miro), Christian Cage, Chris Jericho, and The Big Show. As days are passing, it’s becoming obvious that AEW wants to build a roster with big names in the industry.

Recently, the company most probably signed Daniel Bryan who did not return to WWE after losing a match against Roman Reigns prior to Hell in a Cell 2021. Additionally, rumours reveal that the company has most probably signed on CM Punk as well.

Now, even though it’s hiring the big names, it doesn’t shy away from giving youngsters a chance. This has helped make AEW a suitable platform for the upcoming generation.

Keeping the above side, the company lets pro-wrestlers have some amount of say in their creative line. This freedom is extremely important since it helps the pro-wrestler connect with the character, and in turn with the audience.
