This is really something:
Seth Rollins on SummerSlam conference call:
— John Pollock (@iamjohnpollock) July 22, 2019
Moxley to AEW:
"I was surprised by it. I knew Ambrose needed time away from WWE."
"Now he's competition and trying to take dinner off my table & good on him."
AEW:
"We are going to knock them dead, just like we do everyone else."
All Elite Wrestling is indeed competition to WWE, in the sense that the company will be competing for the same talent within the industry. That said, the promotion is certainly not a threat to WWE’s business, not now and maybe not ever. The idea that Jon Moxley, or anyone at AEW, could possibly take food off Seth Rollins’ table is downright ridiculous.
Of course, this is the type of comment you can expect from someone involved in a “war,” real or imagined. It’s designed to galvanize the “soldiers” on that side of it.
It’s silly, of course, but expect more of this in the future, especially if AEW finds success on TNT.
