Styles in particular has worked in the biggest companies in the world throughout his career, he has a bit of a Free Agent feel to him still, choosing AEW over WWE when they’ve been pushed well (more so in Styles’ case) gives off a totally different vibe than your Tye Dillinger’s and TJP’s signing.
Bingo. You want the tippy top guys because it looks like you’re shakers. You want the underappreciated because it allows you to look ace using them properly. A TJ Perkins or Shawn Spears are the guys I would be more reluctant to take. They’ve got more of the “cast off” vibe.
