He must know he wouldn't get over in PG world. Not being able to grab another mans penis because of PG is half the reason Dustin Rhodes quit.

To be fair i havent followed Joey Ryan closely but he can be much more than " the penis wrestlee" i do think he would need to be something more adult, like his LU persona.

Here we are all talking about WWE willing to hire anybody to keep them from AEW, as if a dude who crushes his opponents' hands by flexing his massive dick isn't way more up Vince's alley than workrate types like Styles and Bryan.

WWE totally isn't afraid of AEW but also they're willing to hire the penis wrestler to a coaching position just to try and keep his dick flips off of someone else's TV. Just who on the current NXT/PC roster needs to be coached in how to be a Penis Wrestler, anyway? Bugenhagen? Mansoor? Last ditch attempt to make Corbin entertaining. He already kinda looks like one so...

I don't know whether to find it amusing or kind of saddening that some people just see a few viral clips of Joey Ryan's dick flip spots and think that's all he's ever done in a near-two decade career as a pro wrestler, as if the dude doesn't know how to work or something.
But yeah, hard to see Ryan taking the spot unless he knows he'll have a lucrative long term gig when his in-ring run is done. He's making a great living right now, has tuned his gimmick so he doesn't have to bump that much to get a reaction, and his friends are likely waiting to offer him an AEW deal of some kind or another at the soonest opportunity where he'll likely get to keep selling his own merch and make his various international and indy appearances.

They don't want him as a long term performer, they want him as a trainer. Given that he managed to pull a semni-watchable match out of untrained performers on Drag Race, I could see some potential for him there. If he turns them down, he's an idiot, he's pushing 40 and the WWE door won't be open for him forever.
He's probably going to look back at this with regret if he says no, especially if he ends up getting hurt, which is more likely the older he gets as a performer. AEW is a nice option, but there's no guarantee if will work out long term, given how they haven't run a single show as a full time promotion.

Hire everyone to keep others from having anyone. Use no one. Lanny Poffo and Iron Sheik say hi

I think a lot of people know he's more than 'the dick flip guy', but that's also been his schtick for so long, he's really enjoying himself doing it, and it's what WWE would inevitably see him as. Calling him the penis wrestler in this situation is really just a good way to bank up the absurdity of what's clearly a desperate grab to try and take an AEW star away, because this is such an insanelly arbitary time to gain an interest in a dude who's been going on for so long that he's pretty much the veteran all the SoCal talents talk up as a huge credit to their careers.

I'm willing to bet a lot of money that Vince watched All In and that this was his reaction to the Joey Ryan segment

Yeah no way Ryan doesn't sign with AEW, dudes friends with everyone there, had a huge spot on the first show as well. This is just more WWE pettiness honestly, brag about a "pissant company" and then piss your pants and try and take any name that they can get on a TV Platform to compete with you.

I'm kinda surprised he's on WWE's radar. I thought he was a persona non grata after his last appearance as an extra.
I'd be all for it, as I am a fan and he would be a valuable teacher regarding character and use of social media, but I don't see why he'd want to.

Guys, you do realize he could get repackaged... right?
Just cause he’s doing the penis shtick doesn’t mean that’s all he can do lol.
He was awesome in TNA with that sleazy 70s pornstar gimmick. They could easily get away with doing that. Maybe not the porn part... but play him up as a sleazy creep.

On the flip side, he runs a wrestling promotion on the side, something he’ll probably still be able to do whilst being with AEW if he signs and would probably still be there even if AEW fails and is able to do stuff he wants to do during WrestleMania weekend and the like. Again, stuff he has not a shot of doing under a PC trainer contract. I mean, he could don’t get me wrong but it’s not like he doesn’t have anything going for him if he doesn’t take it.

Really surprised they want him as a wrestler at all, assumed if they had interest it’d be only as a trainer.

this is all a ploy. WWE knows if they bring in Joey Ryan, as soon as someone starts beating up on him The Young Bucks will pop up to rescue him, and they'll lock them in the performance center and won't let them leave until they sign a contract

This doesn't have anything to do with his gimmick being something WWE could never do, it's to do with the idea they want to just have him do a quick run in NXT then go into a trainer capacity. The whole story and what they want doesn't really entail him wrestling for them very much at all.

The fact that he'd have to take a pay cut to join WWE when all he's really known for is this one comedy spot is amazing. Really? Wow, mom was wrong. You can make money from dicking around.
