Jim Ross Comments On How The Revival Could Fit In AEW

The Revival were released from their WWE contracts earlier today. Now, All Elite Wrestling commentator Jim Ross has commented on a potential fit for them in AEW.

Here is the quote from the Top Rope Nation Wrestling Podcast, courtesy of Wrestling Inc.:

“Well, it’s a big if, everything’s a big if, because I don’t know what The Revival’s goals are,” Ross said. “I think they would fit into our team very, very well. You know, we’re trying to be a little bit more athletic, athletically oriented, more fundamentally sound in our storytelling, and The Revival team certainly fits that bill. They are one of the best tag teams in the world, period, no matter where it is. So I think they would do great in our company, whether that happens or not remains to be seen.

“There’ll be gross speculation that it’s a done deal, all that good stuff. But Tony Khan handles that, and I’m not in that talent relations role any longer. Thank goodness. I’m the Senior Adviser. Let me tell you what that means, the job description is this: I take credit for all the good ideas and I disavow any knowledge of the ones that suck. So that’s a Tony…I can’t imagine, knowing Tony Khan as I do, and the fan that he is and his ability to spot great things.. I can’t imagine that he wouldn’t be interested. Why would anybody not be interested in Revival is my question? So I’m thinking there’s a possibility they come to work for us.”

The Revival do not have a no-compete clause and are currently free to sign wherever they please. Of course, there is no wrestling due to the pandemic, but you get the picture.
