It's honestly hard to know for certain what's true and what's kayfabe regarding this whole Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre being angry stuff. Wrestlers have worked the media before, after all, and everyone will surely be eager to make as much money as possible in the long run.

Still, if the reports are accurate, then a few might make that cash somewhere else.

Triple H was playing a bit of a dangerous game by keeping cards close to his chest regarding CM Punk. If guys like Seth and Drew definitely didn't know he was coming in, then that's risky. One reportedly detests Punk, and the other's contract is ticking down heading into the most crucial period of the financial year.

Hopefully this doesn't happen, but what if Punk's arrival eventually causes others to think about heading elsewhere? WWE's loss could be AEW's gain, in short. Again, never rule this sort of thing out in wrestling.
