Bret can't really do anything to help the company. He was a never a good talker and. now even less so. He can't wrestle or even bump. Outside of doing one offs like he did presenting the belt, he's virtually useless as an on screen character.

I love Austin, but I can't see him going for 2 reasons. 1, he's got his broken skull podcast, which I'm assuming is popular and heavily backed by Vince. 2, he too can't go anymore. Sure seeing a stunner would be fun here and there, and he's undeniably entertaining, but what does he bring? They already have tons of former wrestlers getting on screen roles. Yes, Austin is bigger then all of them. But does he really bring anything if they can't get a match out of him? Would he really take a match after all theseyears when you know Vince has probably asked him countless times since 03? Would Vince let one of his biggest stars of all time walk?

It won't be the Rock. It's not as unlikely but I don't think it'll be Cena. Styles and Daniel Bryan are locked into deals. Maybe it's Lesnar but that would be a lot of money for a guy who doesn't work much, even when you consider how well AEW does keeping guys from wrestling every single show.

Punk is the biggest and most realistic name. But i have my doubts. I'm honestly stumped.

But hey, we're buzzing so they got that going for them.
