I think this is worth making a thread of. With him very likely main eventing Night 1 of Mania, I think he’s going to stay but it would be very refreshing if he went to AEW for a few years before coming back

[john84]

I'd miss seeing him on WWE if he left after his contract expires (and Becky since my guess would be she goes with her husband maybe?). If he went to AEW instead there'd be some cracking matches there I'd like to see him have.

[chronocross]

I doubt he's going anywhere, he seems like a WWE guy for life.

[Mr Mario Mario]

Never say never I guess but really does strike me as very unlikely to leave WWE and wrestle elsewhere

[Mozenrath]

I feel he probably stays, but it's not entirely a given, with how wild the wrestling landscape can be these days.

[Rumble McSkirmish]

While I too ultimately see Seth staying with WWE for the foreseeable future, it couldn't hurt for him to have his reps at least get in touch with Tony and Co and see what they could offer which could potentially lead to a bigger contract from WWE to get him to stay. (Unless that tactic doesn't work anymore.)

[Cyno]

I never saw Edge anywhere else but WWE, so never say never. But I'd be really surprised if he left.

[yokohamacpfc]

He is probably already very well paid and will ask for a massive raise for his hard work carrying his division especially if Punk and Roman are earning more for far less dates. It could get dicey if TKO see Rollins more of a good hand than a sure moneymaker and I think this is the reason WWE and Drew are still far apart on money. It will also be a test of how much control HHH (who would do anything to keep Seth) has over company purse strings post-TKO purchase.

Becky’s is up in the same year, she’s going to ask for a big raise too. He will probably stay but it’s not as close to 100% as many would expect. AEW will be used as negotiating leverage and he will likely have a few phone calls with TK and Moxley.

[Bang Bang Bart]

I'd like to say he's likely staying, but wrestling these past few years has been an insane roller coster that makes no sense, so there is a chance that Seth does not re-sign with WWE, as small as that chance might be (though Mox putting in a good word for his pal could figure into it).

[Magnus the Magnificent]

Will he be saying WWE is taking food off his table if goes to AEW?

[CMWaters]

Might be insane if he does leave and either reunites or feuds with Moxley in AEW for a time.

Hard to say either way if it's happening though. And even if her contract is ending around the same time too, I don't know if I'd count Becky switching even if he does. Charlotte hasn't left despite her hubby in AEW after all.

That's a good point. Somehow I'd forgotten about Charlotte being married to Andrade.

[The Summer of Muskrat XVII]

Seth is one of their Top 5 male talent (Roman, Brock, Punk, Cody, Seth) and the only one of those 5 who is a guarantee to be wrestling in 5 years is Seth. I don't see any world WWE doesn't pay him whatever he wants and lock him up before his contract ends unless he asks for something unreasonable. Seth should be a top level talent for another 8-10 years or more, he's one of WWE's most important wrestlers. I expect him to have a very Orton like career


EDIT: Becky, however, I could see leaving. Not to go to AEW or anything, but if she were to take a Jericho like sabbatical and disappear for a year or two and just take a break it would not surprise me at all

Isn’t his back kind of f***ed though? I can see another 5 years but not sure after that

[Deleted]

What's Tyler Black doing in the Dynamite Zone?

[HIM]

I see Seth staying while Drew leaves. Those are 2 big league talents who's contracts are coming up and honestly Seth out of all people shouldn't have any issues getting his creativity side out in the company. He says what he wants, wrestles who he wants, is always in big title matches let alone always getting a title, like he's good. The only thing AEW can give him is more opponents so it's a matter of if he'll get more opponents or if he wants to keep his current position.

Drew is a different story. As dope as he is, Seth just has more from the company.

[Cranjis McBasketball]

He’d be stupid not to see the dumb money AEW might throw at him to make up for the Cargill and Punk signings.

["Gizzark" Mike Wronglevenay]

I definitely don't see Seth leaving WWE. They have treated him supremely well throughout, he's Hunter's boy

Andrade has made an attempt to leave AEW, which involved trying to beat the crap out of Sammy Guevara.

You have to wonder when/if Becky (or Seth, or both) wants to settle down for the kid to go to school, or maybe have more children. It's one thing to cart a baby/toddler around with them arena to arena, and I'm sure they have a perfectly good support network in place if needed, but the little one will surely need some sort of stability soon.
