Right, lmao. Let's keep it a buck. Good relations, sure, but money (and promised exclusives, perks, etc.) keep a lot of mouths closed more than anything else I highly highly doubt Khan is paying any journalists any money (except $12 a month to subscribe to the Observer).

Yeah, I don’t think so either, he’s paying wrestling dirt sheet folks. See what I did there?

I wouldn't say that.
Most of us know the debuts are coming. It's just a matter of when.
For example, when Johnny Gargano shows up, that's not really a surprise. We all know it's gonna happen.
But if he got someone like The Rock or Batista? Yeah I'd shit my pants.

Do y'all really think he's paying people off and not just runs a tight ship? He apparently has had Claudio signed for weeks and Danielson (one of his friends) didn't even know until he was injured and proposed bringing Claudio in for a one-shot to TK

Have there been any genuine, honest to goodness surprises, though? Everyone that's showed up people have been like "it's rumored this guy is coming in, stay tuned. It may happen here, it may happen there."
Meltzer tweeted that Claudio was backstage at like 9PM. The last one I remember being genuinely shocking was Sting showing up. That's just me, though.

Shibata showing up last night and doing some moves probably counts. Didn’t see him rumored anywhere.

I think Black coming in was a big surprise that I don't recall being reported anywhere. Especially the timing of it. I think we all knew he could be coming in but we all assumed he had a 90 day non-compete which ended up just being a 30 day one.

I see someone brought up Aleister below and that's a good call.

I am 99.9% convinced that the biggest "dirtsheet" names like Sapp and Bix are on the payroll and leak information when it's best for business

I think WWE stuff gets leaked to the degree it does because it's just a larger organization with a longer history. We're starting to see more stuff leak out of AEW, too.

But I do agree that there is biased in at least some quarters online. Same could be said about pro-WWE people as well in fairness.

Yeah talking heads being biased towards AEW over WWE and vice versa certainly exists. Highly doubt they’re getting paid though. But I don’t see that out of the legitimate reporters/scoops guys like SRS, Meltzer, Alvarez, PWInsider, Keller, guys like that.
