Now the spring cleaning seems to be done by that company up North, who would you like to see Tony take on?
Dolph is an obvious choice with his brother, will add a solid tag team to the roster and give his brother a much needed boost. Plus, Dolph himself could have some great matches with, well, loads of people. Could work as a plucky face team and also cocky heels. He’d be a great get.
Riddle? Hmmm. I can see there being interest but the guy is just his own worst enemy. Talented no doubt but he needs time out the spotlight at this point.
Shelton is an obvious choice but other than Good Matches I can’t see him bringing anything of any real value to be honest.
Riddick Moss could be a sleeper hit if it’s done right. He’s a bigger guy and can go in the ring, and a name change definitely wouldn’t hurt.
Boogs has been posting some eye-opening Tweets after his release so I could see him wanting to prove a point elsewhere. AEW could certainly add another big guy to their ranks.
What do you think?

None of them really
They all have good qualities but none have that OMG AEW needs that dude factor especially with their roster being stacked as it is

To be honest, not big on most of the people released.
Dolph could be used with his brother, Mace and Mansoor would be an awesome get and add something fresh to the roster but other than that. When she has a good character to work with Emma can be fun, but would she add that much? Benjamin is cool but they have enough good in the ring veterans.
The roster is so stacked, who would really stand out?

I can’t help but feel that if you give Mustafa Ali a ball with some freedom he would be a megastar. He could start with a (re)match against Buddy Murphy and then grow from there.

Dolph and Ali are really the only ones I am really hoping to see, but I am not opposed to anyone finding work in AEW. AEW has been pretty solid in both using established veterans and building new stars in its short history, and I think they could potentially find a good use for any of the released WWE talent.
Except Riddle. AEW needs to avoid him like the plague. I have no interest in ever seeing him wrestle again. His character is insufferable, his matches aren't good enough to make up for it, and he's evidently a complete piece of shit in real life. No thanks.

I would say to avoid Riddle for sure.
Dolph, Ali, Mace/Mansoor, Dabba Kato could also be fun. Boogs is one that I want to see get a shot as a big, dumb meat head who can shred.
Not sure if any are must ads though.

Dolph might be fun and I think Ali would be a good pick up. That's it though.
When I watched WWE I could never stand Riddle and that was before I learned about his off screen stuff. AEW shouldn't go anywhere near him.

Only interested in Ziggler if he tags with his brother for the laughs and the BTE stuff.

Dolph is number one for me. So many fantasy matches I have for him.
Ali just fits like a glove with the roster.
Mace and Mansoor would be a PERFECT fit for AEW or Impact. Seeing more of their creativeness since they were released has made me fans.

Dolph, just to see him outside the WWE system.

Dolph and Shelton in veteran roles. Mansoor and Mace seem perfect as young new stars that can really vibe with the nerd culture segment of AEW. Ali could be a pretty big star if given the freedom to do so.
Others I could take or leave. Matt Riddle is the hardest of hard passes.

Dolph and his brother as a tag team would be cool.
I'd love to see them vs FTR or something

Shanky so we can get him vs. Satnam Singh. I’d like 2 giant Indian lads dominating the tag scene for a while. I’ve not seen much of Shanky but what I did see he seemed OK enough.

Maybe Dolph and Shelton but that's about it.

Pretty much just Dolph.
I'd kind of rather see the other popular choices (MMM and Ali) go to Impact.
Not because I want them to have less money, I'd just like to see them build their personae up there before they jump to AEW.

Ali feels like a must-sign to me.
While I'm not much of a Dolph fan, count me in the camp who'd like to see him signed purely for the chance of it leading to more of a Hollywood Hunk push. Tag team, brother vs brother feud, whatever works.
