You may well be seeing that image above on AEW Dynamite or Collision next year.

Sheamus is great friends with Adam Copeland away from the ring, and his WWE deal is set to expire at some stage in 2024. Fellow hard-hitter Drew McIntyre, who recently turned full-blown heel, is another who has yet to agree an extension with the promotion. Could both be Tony Khan's next major signings?!

Stranger things have happened, and that'd be quite the new direction for WWE's product. Sure, Drew was absent between 2014-2017, but he and Sheamus have been stalwarts on TV since 2008/2009. Seeing either show up under the All Elite banner would be flat out weird, but very cool and fresh-feeling.

Wrestlers are business men and women. They'll leverage whatever they can to get better deals for themselves. If WWE doesn't meet those demands, then AEW might. Seeing Sheamus and/or McIntyre make the leap would be quite the shift.
