New promotion funded by a rich businessman.
The roster so far is:
Cody Rhodes
The Young Bucks
Hangman Page
Brandi Rhodes
Britt Baker
I heard they want Goldberg.
Hopefully they sign a bunch of people, if only to keep them away from WWE. Their roster is too damn big as it is and they still just keep hiring more.

Well, Chris Jericho won't be making his seemingly yearly Royal Rumble return because he's signed with this company.

Good. They're killing any goodwill Vince had for them after the rehab and baby shit immediately after being put on tv. Tbh AEW probably doesn't even want them.
I don't blame The Revival though.

Mike & Maria Kanellis ask for their releases, WWE denies release, management's view on them behind the scenesPWTorch has confirmed with WWE sources that neither will be granted their release at this time. Mike and Maria have a bad reputation in some WWE circles. Maria is seen as a complainer by WWE management. One source noted that Maria has been a complainer for a long time dating back to her previous stint in the company.
WWE sources tell PWTorch that Mike is his own worst enemy. WWE management has frowned on some of his comments on social media lately and he is seen as a complainer as well. WWE sources noted that many people in WWE don’t believe Mike ever had a drug problem pointing out that he continued to wrestle on the road for WWE and never officially went to rehab. Another source that has dealt with a family member that battled addiction in the past told PWTorch that it bothered them that Mike never went to rehab noting that WWE wants their talent healthy and would have paid for it.
Source Oop!

JR let slip that they are indeed going to have a TV show starting in October on "a major cable network we all have access to" but he said he couldn't name it. I don't think you were supposed to even say that much, Jim.
Regardless, I'm excited. They've signed a lot of people I like now, and the way WWE has been going lately, I need something new. AEW can save wrestling for me at this point, because WWE is killing it. I now understand why people became WCW fans in the 90's and TNA fans in the 2000's.
On the other hand, if Cody completely fails and AEW is trash, I'll probably just stop watching wrestling altogether by this time next year because all I watch these days are the PPVs.

I really wish I could care about their roster more. Nearly any other promotion I'd be all over this, but I can't with Cody and The Youngbucks. I still hope their numbers are better than WWE's have been though.
