What is going on with Pac?

He sustained an injury in early April right after AEW Dynasty that the company knew he was going to have to miss some time with. He was immediately removed from creative plans. Gabe Kidd was brought in and helped fill that void in the Death Riders here and there.

If you could move some talent around, from their current company to a different one, to give them a better chance at getting over who would it be and why?

I do think Private Party would have a better run in NXT, I would move them there. I think their presentation is a great fit for it. I'm glad he's happy in AEW, but seeing Dustin Rhodes do one final story in WWE would have been great, especially with Cody there doing what he is. Kamille in WWE would also be good, and is a nice physical threat to Rhea, Bianca, Jade, etc.

Bayley in AEW would be great, because she brings instead top level, main event credibility. One new top of the card name brings instant puzzle pieces being unlocked

Also, CM Punk and/or Cody Rhodes in AEW because it would be very entertaining to cover, and the stories available there would be fantastic.

It's come out recently that Hechicero is under a dual contract with CMLL & AEW. It also came out that there are more, but the names are yet to be revealed. Have you heard anything about this, and, if so, do you know some of the other names?

CMLL and AEW have a very firm, strong working relationship. From what I understand, this was only strengthened by WWE acquiring AAA. Tony Khan spoke publicly recently about the Dragon Lee situation, and I think that really put things in perspective for the brands.
