Good. I hope more people keep leaving WWE. I'm all for anything that hurts WWE at this point. I don't want WWE to go out of business, but I do want them to come close like they did in the 90's so that a fire is lit under their asses and they start making great wrestling shows again.

I mean we’re they misused or just not great fits? I think it’s a little bit of both. For me they worked best when they were a trio with someone whether it was AJ at first, Elias the couple times they teamed up or Balor which they only did for like a couple weeks I think before dropping it.

The money doesn't mean anything if you're not getting on TV or in front of a live crowd more or less regularly. This is a craft as well as a business, and one that relies on exposure in order to develop it. What Vince et al at WWE have been doing is essentially a welfare experiment that rewards mediocrity and disincentivizes ambition and creativity. If Vince doesn't want you to shine, it's pointless to try. If he wants you to shine, he'll polish you to nubs, dammit.
It will be _very_ interesting to see who stays and who goes during the next year to eighteen months, and who'll be left in WWE when all is said and done, and who'll be willing to sign with them at the end. I would suggest that, if Gallows and Anderson are leaving, then AJ and Finn can pretty much name their price and/or fight tooth and nail for creative input.

I never really cared about them, but I'm pleased that they're prepared to leave the comfortable surroundings of the WWE. The more who do that the better. WWE has been trying to stifle domestic competition by signing everyone they can get their hands on, even if they have no interest in a lot of them.
The list of wrestlers who would be more creatively fulfilled outside the WWE is hilariously long.
For these two in particular, they were obviously brought in with the sole intention of building AJ, but the WWE clearly didn't want AJ as a heel, nor did they want Balor as a heel. And babyfaces don't need henchmen.

They offered those two millions?!
Imagine the number attached to The Usos or Dean Ambrose’s offers.

People complain they weren't used well but you can't push everyone at the same time and there are better tag teams than them. Trying to recreate the Bullet Club for an audience that barely knew what the BC was was a fool’s errand right from the start.

I won't miss them at all. Outside of non-wrestling stuff I have seen nothing impressive from them.
But then, I guess that is exactly their point.

Vince needs to sit down with every single person on the roster and assess their level of happiness to address what a shit job he's done taking care of his people.

"You won't leave me, right Jose?" "No way." "I love you, Jose. Like, more than a friend." "This got too weird, too quickly."

Speaking of No Way Jose, he got a sweet new hairdo. They'll add it to WWE 2K21, just in time for him to undo it.

They were grossly misused on the weekly shows. Hope they either go back to NJPW or AEW.
