An AEW star is looking to explore his free agency once his contract expires this year.
According to Sescoops, that star is FTW Champion HOOK, who is currently engaged in a partnership with Chris Jericho, one that looks to end in a feud between the two. The report adds that WWE may have potential interest. Sescoops’ source, who is familiar with WWE’s recruitment strategy stating, told them the following: “I can see WWE clearly being interested in him.”

I would like to see what they could get out of him. He’s got good presence and a lot of potential.

He'd look real good in Dijak's Torture Dungeon...
...or with Ilja trying to that "combination eat/f***/maim him" thing that Ilja does.

Any wrestler with a brain should explore their free agency options in today’s climate tbh. I do think Hook could benefit from NXT. I don’t think he’s getting enough reps in AEW working once a week

He should just go work the indies/Japan for a few years and get seasoning. He's 24. Go work NJPW, Progress, Defy, GCW and other North East indies, etc. Just work the studs that aren't under deals right now.
There's time to go join NXT at like 26-27.

Hook would be a great signing, he carries himself like a star, has a style not unlike Matt Riddle in ring but isn't a nightmare outside of it and is a Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil. WWE should snap him up.

It's a bit better now but WWE is still a place where being big helps and he's definitely on the smaller size. Doesn't mean he can't succeed. But he might have a lower ceiling. They'd also definitely want him in NXT for a while. I know he has been trained to wrestle but he struggles in longer matches and doesn't seem to know how to improvise that much.

I wouldn't mind seeing him in NXT, I feel like the FTW title has run its course IMO.

I guess it is time to give my .02 cents
I thought it was said that Hook would be a future AEW Champion. I am not saying that Hook should not come to WWE, I would love it, but if he does not sign with AEW when his contract expires, he will not have been an AEW Champion and carry that accomplishment with him when he does finally move to another company.

He would be better off honing his skills outside WWE the dude has years to get there.
Maybe he feels like he needs to chase the big pay day now instead of later idk

If Hook comes to NXT, I suspect there will be several breakups happening. All the ladies are gonna want a piece of him.

Maybe he feels like he needs to chase the big pay day now instead of later idk Yes, but consider : Putting him on the Horny Show when he's at Peak Horny Value... ...you wait too long and he might start to look like Taz. |

If this happens, I hope his WWE-ified name has Jones in it.

Hey hook that is a real nice head of hair you have there. Would be unfortunate if papa genetics kicked in. |
