According to Fightful, Jay White’s contract is up soon and he is expected to be US-bound.
While not official since he is still under contract, WWE are seen to be the favorites to sign him. AEW are also a possibility.

His matches are really good, but how are his promos? WWE is such a character heavy product that I am curious to how this would work

I don't have a good example offhand, but his character work is as strong as his ring work. If he becomes a free agent he is instantly the best all-around free agent in the world.

Jay would instantly be an upper midcard/main event guy in WWE, no NXT needed. They'd be nuts not to hire him. And honestly? I think he'd be more of a difference maker in WWE right now than AEW, which says a lot about the strength of the AEW roster.

HHH would strap the rocket to his back
He’s basically Game HHH before the knee tear with somehow better in ring psychology

Switchblade would be an amazing get for the E...
Switchblade vs Edge seems like it'd make a great upper card feud for Mania

Jay White would be a huge get for either major American promotion. If WWE gets him, he deserves the AJ Styles treatment.

I thought the report said he was bound for the States. Not specifically for WWE. Unless I read it wrong.
Either way, it's a big signing if they get him.

The current uncertain environment in WWE probably makes this much less of a slam dunk than it would've been a week or two ago. Like without the looming spectre of Vince and the pending sale of the company, I have little doubt Triple H would practically give White a blank check to come to WWE. Now? Who knows?

If it wasn’t for the Vince saga you’d probably say WWE would be the favorites - he just seems like a dude that HHH would push to the moon. Will HHH even be there in 6 months though? Who knows.
