Part of me is still surprised that AJ Styles is in WWE. If anyone was the Forever TNA guy, it would've been him IMO. He likely would still be there if they'd treated him half as good as he deserved. I think the fact that he left says more about TNA than it does about him.

Roman, Seth, Charlotte, Miz, and Ziggles I think all might be. Watch a guy like Gargano be there for the next 25 years too.

Hell, Styles even said the fact they offered him less money wasn’t the annoying thing but the context of it, needing to save money and not seeing him as worth offering more after everything he’s done for them.

Yeah, WWE has done nothing but show AJ Styles all the respect in the world, why wouldn’t he suddenly be loyal to the people who finally treated him like he deserves to be?

It's hard to say. Dean Malenko was a lifer, until he wasn't. Double or Nothing, he was the road agent for the main event.

It's hard to tell sometimes, something could happen that sours the relationship like I would have thought Earl Hebner would have been a lifer

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Randy Orton, to me, considering how he's always been protected and a mainstay in the main event, I just feel like he's WWE lifer material. He's my dark horse for a shock jump to AEW whenever his contract finishes. He is surely financially set up for life, has done it all in WWE, wrestles under his birth name and doesn't have a gimmick that would be copyrighted, gets on with Cody and Jericho and has always had a bit of a side eyed relationship with HHH both on and off screen. He's been in or around the main event scene for 15 yrs now so WWE can't 'Warrior' him without making themselves look foolish. If Orton has an itch to scratch he should leave, his best WWE days are behind him.

Honestly, with AEW now a potentially viable alternative I'm not sure almost anybody is any more.

He's been in or around the main event scene for 15 yrs now so WWE can't 'Warrior' him without making themselves look foolish. If Orton has an itch to scratch he should leave, his best WWE days are behind him. In a recent interview, Cody was asked about Orton, since Orton will like some of Cody's tweets. He more or less said that in addition to them being friends, Orton likes getting a reaction out of people and stirring speculation. I think Orton does definitely have a troll side, but then again, if Orton had any itch to make the jump, it's not like Cody would tell us. It'd spoil the surprise, and it's also be the kind of thing that'd be a possible legal problem if they're having any kinds of negotiations with contracted talents. (I doubt they are, but wrestling does get into murky territory with that sometimes, like Big Show heavily implying, but coming short of saying outright for legal reasons, that he began talking to WWF before his contract ran out in WCW after Bischoff pissed him off and the company had been paying him less than Hennig despite being considerably more important)

If AEW does get the traction to start a new war then I'll be curious to see how it plays out now we have social media and the huge force the internet has become.

R-Truth, probably Roman Reigns, and Charlotte.
And though he's not very active right now, I doubt John Cena will ever work for another wrestling company.

Hawkins and Ryder are marks so much so they’ll never go anywhere else.
