made one of the main shows on the WWE Network.
Another part of that deal has recently been revealed, with a recent episode of
Wrestling Observer Radiodiscussing the plans WWE had for the Bucks should they have signed with the company.
WWE pitched an invasion angle to Matt and Nick - which Dave Meltzer speculates would have also involved the likes of Cody, Hangman Page and Kenny Omega running riot all over WWE (
all three were also offered deals by WWE before opting to go with AEW).
The respective deals offered by WWE were also said to have included a few individual promises for each of the AEW roster members, including a break after six months if things weren't going to plan.
Ultimately, those mentioned above turned down the deals and are now looking forward to AEW's first official event - Double Or Nothing - on May 25.
