Why is it every time a contract in AEW is up everyone says they should go to NXT? We never hear the opposite

I don't think that it happens every time, but it certainly happens a lot. I think for a few reasons. One, WWE has established a track record with a number of talent that they're going to go there before the main roster. I don't think anyone would have had an issue with Ricky Saints, Ethan Page or Blake Monroe going to the main roster, but WWE sent them there. Unless they've had a main event level AEW run, it seems like that's the path, and even in the case of Monroe, it still happened. There are also plenty of people in AEW who still need TV and in ring seasoning, so that's why.

What is your prediction for Anna Jay with the looming expiration of her AEW contract? Does she stay or does she go?

I think she'll end up staying in All Elite Wrestling, but from what I heard, she's keeping her options open. She seems to like working with Tay Melo, and I think they'll be used quite a bit in the tag team division. I'd like to see both of them getting more reps on TV, because wrestling 20 times a year on TV makes it hard to get to the next level.

Do you know if WWE is building towards Becky Lynch vs Jessika Carr? Cause that's really what it feels like at the moment.

I've heard nothing resembling that at all, but Jessika could absolutely do it. She worked a couple of matches this year on EVOLVE under a mask, and it was her first in-ring matches since 2017. She's only 34 and keeps herself in great shape and ready at all times. I don't think that's the route they're going, but I kind of hope they do at least once. I could absolutely see Becky Lynch losing a shock match to "Kalyx." Everything I know about Becky Lynch leads me to believe she'd want that.

Comments

I remember on a few editions of I think Dark, Anna Jay was very excited about recruiting Tay to Dark Order, and they've since been a very consistent pairing with Taybeing a Dark Order associate(I think that's the term, right? Like how JD McDonagh wasn't yet a full-time member of The Judgment Day for a bit?) and even sticking together as part of the Jericho Appreciation Society, so I'd imagine she does indeed like working with Tay.

I'd love Becky to wrestle "Kalyx" (build her up for a few weeks beforehand), Becky's too preoccupied that Carr isn't the referee, gets too complacent, Kalyx rolls her up, and unmasks as Carr.
