The thing is, shane can actually be a really good asset on the business management side of things, and you can run some interesting stories that are grounded and not egotistical. Just have someone there to shoot down bits and pieces so he dont go too far. Shane was never bad early on with what he did, but the problem was that his father helped give him too much of a big head/control, and he ran way too far with it. A good way to genuinely bring him in can be in a role similar to Ted Dibiase if you have to as a kinda benefactor to mercedes if you wanna tie it into them being seen in public meeting. Many ways its could work.

I appeared on your video, LOL. I don't think AEW is desperate. Not at all, they are closing to sign a new deal, so they don't need Shane that much. However, I would like to see him in AEW not as a wrestler, but more like a manager/character figure in the storylines.

To me there was no war because I didn't live in America and was forced to pick a side. Today's brand fans also don't need to pick a side because no one is forced to watch one or the other on the same night, technology is there to record one and watch the other at a later time. The tribalism brand fans just show in my opinion that they don't care about wrestling at all, so no need to take them seriously

Shane McMahon in AEW would only be good under certain circumstances. He should only wrestle occasionally when there’s stakes involved. Shane should be the on air authority figure, he should help with creative, and he could help Tony Khan control the talents. Tony has been lousy at being an actual boss who controls his own company and Shane could give AEW much needed stability in that regard. I guarantee you, the first thing he would do is rein in the EVPs. Namely the Dumb Bucks. They’ve run roughshod over AEW and have instigated shit with no one to keep them in check. Shane McMahon would be smart enough to see through that and control them. AEW is getting really desperate and a big name like Shane McMahon coming in might help AEW with the Turner network’s negotiations too. Under the right circumstances, Shane McMahon in AEW would be a great thing.

Shane aint working for a minor league after working for the biggest promotion in the world. Aew can sign cena and bring Austin out of retirement it wouldn't do a damn thing, the very problem with aew its right at the top - Tony Khan. And hes not a booker but a match maker. He sees big names and all he can think about is dream matches. He cant book an angle for 3 months much less a year. And at this point he has too much ego to step aside and let a real qualified person to book the show.

There is nobody in AEW who tells others the word "NO" so what if he joins AEW and makes it all about himself, who is there to tell him the word "NO" when he was told the word "NO" in WWE
