Without anything major changing, Brock Lesnar, CM Punk and Ronda Rousey should all be free agents by May. You could also sign talent from ROH, MLW, the NWA, New Japan, MLW and AEW. They aren’t going to fight you too hard in contracts.
I don’t think the wrestling on TV has the awareness to get in the way.

Anything else, regardless of how big it ever gets, will always be seen as "2nd rate".

Unless it is significantly better and actually brands itself effectively as something else.
