I have no doubt the WWE does stuff in this vein. I think something is going on with the Anthem/New Japan deal to landlock AEW (WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS???). But I think the smarter executives at WWE know how to go about this in a “legal” way. It’s going to be hard to prove that WWE was that heavily involved in decision-making processes and it’s not just an executive talking out her ass to make MLW feel better because they sort of bombed on VICE, Tubi was just holding out for a better deal, etc.

Feels like a crapshoot on MLW’s part, where they really wanted the money from those deals, don’t have it, and feel like the quickest way to get some cash flow is to settle with the WWE. They may be perfectly right or perfectly wrong in the scenario. I’m thinking about that time they sold “War Games” to WWE and it probably made them more money than promoting their actual War Games.
