Considering Drew is heavily featured on the Clash at the Castle 2024 ppv which is in June, what makes you think he’s not resigning? When's his contract supposed to be up? If it's after June, no harm in putting the most prolific Scottish wrestler you have on the poster for a big event in his home country. Supposly right after Wrestlemania, which is hard to believe he hasn’t resigned at this point

The Tate's are also being dickheads on Twitter for no reason so currently I'm believing Khan at them being unprofessional and not showing to work. They shouldn’t be shitty to Dalton Castle for sure. But if Tony is lying about them, I’d be mad too. I don’t know if Twitter behavior completely cuts their credibility, but I definitely would like to hear from them and Stu do a better picture can be painted. I'm not saying I won't believe anything they say, but I will also say this is not the first time I've seen them be shitheads online so I can BELIEVE they were unprofessional.

A bigger note for me about the CatC poster wasn't Drew being on there (which is a no-brainer regardless of contract status) but the absence of Becky and Sheamus. The history and culture of Glasgow would make me think the Irish talent would be well emphasized - of course it could be nothing, maybe Sheamus won't be back in time or they want him to be a surprise, Becky might be taking the summer off for personal reasons/book promotion but their contracts are up this summer. Sheamus probably wants to pad out his retirement fund and Becky is going to ask for a big raise.

The Tate’s seem to be saying that’s not true. Are we believing Kahn at face value? I dunno. The unsubstantiated rumor about Stu is he also didn’t show up to work. Seems like a weird problem to occur if proper scheduling is used and adhered to. The Tate's are also being dickheads on Twitter for no reason so currently I'm believing Khan at them being unprofessional and not showing to work. It's not no reason if they think Tony's being disingenuous or telling one side of a story. They're entitled to defend themselves.

They're throwing Dalton under the bus, sorry that's not "defending themselves" that's being dicks, this isn't Dalton's fault.

I just see them retweeting dozens of posts that are pro-Tates, with some of those also discussing Dalton. Seems like they’re just trying to retweet anything pro-them in light of the firing.

In general I feel like Tony's kind of just wasting money on big names at this point. He's got plenty of those and the new ones don't seem to actually be helping anything.

I don't think signing McIntyre if he can get them is a waste Nor do I think signing MCMG is either, they need tag teams who have more draw to them more then anything right now.

I don't think Tony says that without proper cause or he'd be opening himself up to trouble

If Drew goes to AEW, I'm sure he'd do well, and it wouldn't be the first time Galloway did well for himself away from WWE, but I wouldn't be surprised if he stays given how WWE has been giving him more creative meat on the bone to gnaw on. I guess just the bigger issue is how long it lasts, if they are just trying to court him or if they are really seeing his value fully.

His work has pretty much entered undeniable territory that they don’t really have much choice but to consistently push him as a main eventer moving forward.

I do agree, he's got genuine momentum and I love that. He's always someone I liked, but who has often just kind of had trouble hitting anything compelling, especially as a heel, where he was sometimes so frightfully boring. Now, he's a highlight of any show he's on.

If you have the chance of getting Drew, you absolutely have to take the shot. Not claiming he is going to instantly transform the ratings or sell out arenas but just the perception and recognition that comes with singing a guy like Drew would absolutely help the company imo.

I mean, I can understand it in theory, but in practice you could say the same thing about Copeland and he doesn't really seem to have helped business whatsoever.

I was going to say that I'd pass on Drew but he's about 8 years younger than I thought he was so I've changed my mind. How is he only 38? It feels like he debuted in WWE over 20 years ago. What is time.

I don't think signing McIntyre if he can get them is a waste Nor do I think signing MCMG is either, they need tag teams who have more draw to them more then anything right now. They’ve signed Okada, Mone and Ospreay and ratings have gone down. I dont think some hypothetical drew or any other signing is “what they need more than anything rn”.
