I don’t watch much AEW but do they even have any big guys?

Yes. The problem they have is putting them in position to look like true big guys.

Wardlow (MJF's body guard)
Luchasaurus (like 6"8 tall guy, kind of stiff but still does a lot of athletic stuff for his size)
Jake Hager
The Butcher (is basically the same body type of Arn Anderson-Ole Anderson from back in the day, looks like he could be their brother)

They don't have someone with the brute bodybuilder look though like Rusev. They have been rumored to sign Brian Cage from Impact for months but he's sidelined with injury. Cage is definitely the steroid looking body type. Rusev doesn't look as vascular but still that same body type.

This is Cage

Someone that would give Vince a boner. You need at least one of these guys to make your other big men look strong as a reference.

AEW should sign both Angle and rusev.

Angle can do wonders as an agent behind the scenes. Rusev absolutely is a monster that could give their other big guys more credibility.

Rowan and the Good Brothers are great talent too. Rowan could reunite with Brodie Lee within the Dark Order.

I didn't see Rowan's name until I just popped into reddit.

That would be phenomenal to have them reunited. I was skeptical at first about Brodie's character, but he seems to be playing the cult leader that knows he's a con-man thing which is fresh. You bring in Rowan, and they both are guys who were previously in a "cult family" and you can play to that.

The Revival is already coming to AEW. Rusev would be someone (paired with a mouthpiece like Angle or Arn) that could give instant credibility to the other big guys in the company, and rest of the midcarders. He would be similar to when WWF signed Malenko, Eddie, Benoit, Saturn. All were established names but never got pushed higher than midcard in WCW. Rusev is in a similar boat but he's actually had main event experience.

I bet Lana is pissed and every dude in the E will be flirting with her big time since Rusev is gone

I read on Reddit, that Rusev gave 25k of his own money to pay WWE staff during this corona thing. Unreal. But not surprising by Vince to screw the guy that allowed his wife to be used as a prop for a storyline.

Lana will leave WWE. She's not a wrestler, she's just an on-screen manager basically. It's not the same as Renee being Moxley's wife and actually having a real role as host/commentator.

I found out that Rusev is trademarked by the WWE. No more Rusev Day. :(

Yeah, Vince rarely if ever allows homegrown talent to use their own names, because if they leave they can't use that name in a competitor's company.

Notice for people like Samoa Joe and Styles who were already established in another company, he lets them use their names because they were top guys in TNA under those names and fans knew them.

But any guy going up through WWE's roster isn't gonna be able to use his real name, because Vince can't trademark it and milk it.

Lana signed a long term contract last fall
 
AEW is so damn good.

Sting debuted in AEW tonight.

Schiavone is screaming his lungs out like it's 1997. "IT'S STINGGGGGGG".

AEW >>>>>>> WWE
 
HOLY ****.

Not only did a rival wrestling fed executive make another appearance on AEW, he participated in the match and had a heel turn.

Then the newly crowned champion fleed the building and they PROMOTED ANOTHER WRESTLING FED ON ANOTHER NETWORK.
