According to WrestleVotes, All Elite Wrestling has made a significant offer to a current WWE star to join the new promotion.
WrestleVotes posted the following early today, noting they couldn’t reveal which talent it was, but they were a “current, big time” WWE star, and the deal was almost too good to turn down.
Seems like the first real shot has been fired… source says AEW has made an “outstanding” offer to a current, big time WWE superstar. An offer that is almost too good to turn down. Things are really about to get interesting.

It’s also worth noting that they did clarify their original comments for some that questioned the validity of the offer, saying it could be a case of a talent with an expiring contract and not someone necessarily locked up under a long-term deal.
I’m not releasing the name, stop asking. Once the offer is accepted or declined, I’m sure your savior Meltz will have the details you all crave. https://t.co/970K1y4JoN
