>AEW smaller company, but ran by a money mark who'll likely give you more than you'll get in WWE
>not ever likely to become a household name or go viral due to being way more niche

>WWE the biggest company, the place everyone wants to go
>you'll have more eyes on you and make decent money but your future isn't guaranteed at all and you could be let go of at any time

WWE first to get properly trained and get a chance to build my portfolio wrestling actual legends everyone knows.
Then AEW after I get let go to make money.
Then WWE again to retire and sell my podcast/book afterwards.
Basically the CM Punk special. He played everyone from Vince to Tony to Tripler.

Go to AEW
farm mailbox money to not travel/take bumps etc for as long as possible.
retire young and rich, and not a mark

I'd hang out in catering with Billy Gunn, Christian Cage, Jeff Jarrett, and Smo Joe and get a Masters Degree in carnyism in 2 years. Also Tony Khan would think I was very cool and probably do whatever I asked.

WWE first to learn how to wrestle that makes money. Then leave when AEW offers significantly more. Do one contract and head back to the fed

AEW because I would actually have pride in my work

The correct move is to spend most of your career at AEW and then go to WWE near the end for a final payday

No he would think I'm cool and I'd tell him you were annoying and to not re-up your contract

AEW. I am an indie darling and I can flip a lot. Meltzer loves me. So I'm bound to get paid more in AEW and that is all that matters to me.
>>not ever likely to become a household name or go viral due to being way more niche
That is a good thing actually. I don't like popularity. I don't want E-drones crowding me at the airport and sending me creepy fan mails to my house. Less popularity is a good thing as long as I can still get paid more than what I would earn in WWE.

I'm lazy as fuck so AEW. All I'd have to do is watch old ROH shows and score coke for Tony and I got a job for life.

AEW and it isn’t even about the money. It’s about the downtime. Even on the production side you’re just working 2 times a week. And it’s debatable if you’re even working when you’re are working.
Also with wwe just getting your own flights together every week or sounds like a fucking nightmare

WWE is too Hollywood. I don't wanna be there when the lid blows off.
Makes AEW the only option of the two. I don't wanna be a household name anyway, it'd be just about the money and sitting under some peoples' learning trees.
Now that I think about it, I really hope that's not carny innuendo for sucking dick in exchange for info.

You will never be a casual fan. You have no hobbies, you have no friends, you have no sex. You are a sad smark loser twisted by internet boards and behind the scenes rumors into a crude mockery of a human being. You seethe over fake fights

All the "validation" you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back wrestling companies mock you. Your parents are disgusted and ashamed of you, your wrestling heroes laugh at your ghoulish appearance and sad lifestyle behind closed doors.

Women are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have allowed women to sniff out genetic dead end loser beta males with incredible efficiency. Even wrestling nerds who "have social lives" look uncanny and unnatural to a woman. Your shit posture and embarrassing vernacular full of wrestling nerd terms you apply to other situations are a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk girl home with you, she'll turn tail and bolt the second she gets a glimpse of your computer set-up.

You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it's going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.

Eventually it'll be too much to bear - you'll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, and plunge into the cold abyss. Your parents will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They'll bury you under a headstone that will be ignored and unvisited, until it's overgrown with weeds and nobody knows a "person" is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your memory is your plastic gaming keyboard.

This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.
