Backstage Heat Between AEW EVPs Reportedly Keeping Big Name From Joining The Company

When All Elite Wrestling was first introduced to the world it was announced that Cody Rhodes, Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks would all be Executive Vice Presidents. All four men hold a certain amount of power backstage, but it’s rumored that they may not be seeing eye to eye.

Wade Keller and Jason Powell recently discussed the dynamic between the Executive Vice Presidents on the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast, and Keller indicated that the “honeymoon period” is over.

“There’s gonna a book written someday by some of these EVP’s or someone else closely observing and we’re gonna learn about a lot of dysfunction,” Keller said. “We’re gonna learn what a very short honeymoon period there was between certain key people in the company, who aren’t even talking to each other anymore. I think we’re gonna find that out.”

“I know there are people in other wrestling companies saying The Bucks and Cody and Kenny it’s not gonna be long at all before they want to have nothing to do with each other. The honeymoon period is going to be short. It seems like it is. It seems like there’s some disengagement and people going off into their own that is showing up in certain ways.”

Jason Powell didn’t mention a specific name, but went on to claim that there’s a “would-be difference maker” who is hesitant to join the company because of the rumored infighting.

“If that is not happening, they need to clear up that misconception,” Powell said. “I do think it’s happening, but if it’s not? I’ll just say; there’s a would-be difference maker who could go there that has that opinion that there’s all this in-fighting and this person, for that reason, is hesitant to go there.”
