    Why Top Wrestlers Are Leaving AEW for WWE: The Real Story Behind the Big Shift

    New Delhi: A veteran wrestler has explained why many former AEW stars are joining WWE. Ethan Page, Ricky Saints, Lexis King, Jade Cargill and many other names have joined the locker room of the Stamford-based promotion. WWE has also recently taken Maria May from Tony Khan's company, now known as Blake Monroe. Tony Khan has lost many important names. WWE has been running on TV for decades, so it is a childhood dream of a wrestler to become a WWE star.


    In the world of wrestling, wrestlers are coming and going between WWE and AEW these days. Many big names are leaving AEW and joining WWE. Veteran commentator Jim Cornette has given his opinion on this. He believes that WWE is taking AEW wrestlers because WWE is paying them good money and is not expecting them to change the game. WWE's goal is to create stars for the future. Natalya has also praised the work of Blake Monroe, who recently joined WWE.


    What did Jim Cornette say?


    Speaking on 'The Experience' podcast, Jim Cornette said that "The boys and girls coming to WWE from AEW are of all ages, abilities and abilities. WWE wants people who can become stars in two to five years. They don't want game changers because they are not changing the game, they are just making money. They want people for the future." This means that WWE is giving opportunities to young and talented players.


    The situation is completely opposite for AEW

    Cornet further said, "Tony Khan will have to wait until a name that is still liked by the people leaves WWE. But this rarely happens. So, the situation is exactly the opposite, where young boys and girls are going from AEW to WWE." Now it will be interesting to see which other stars move from one company to another in the coming time. This change is continuously going on in the world of wrestling.
