I'm not sure what you're even arguing against.

I get that you're worried Rusev will flop outside of the WWE but thats not a given.

Rusev is super solid and has put in matches people like. I think he deserves a chance elsewhere to fail or succeed if he feels like it.

WWE don't really have a place for Rusev right now, I don't see the problem with him trying to re-establish himself somewhere new where they could use more heavyweights like him.
I mean sure that's fine. I just don't think all of a sudden he'll get a big spot somewhere and I don't necessarily think he should. I love the shit out of that man, but...

I wouldn't assume he would.

If he started in AEW, it would definitely have to be the midcard somewhere. The TNA method of just throwing a main event belt on anybody with a sniff of WWE on them is something that hopefully AEW won't follow in the footsteps of.

I doubt they will but giving Jericho your first title reign in as bad of a shape as he is with his meme finisher, wouldn't blame anyone for thinking that.

I'm alright with Jericho getting it, but like for instance, if Spears is anywhere near that, I have to wonder why.

So is Shota at that point yet where he can be allowed to win a title?

Becuase a Death Riders tag team is money.

Also possible. Ospreay is in a similar sort of place to KUSHIDA right now, he's too big (figuratively) for the Jr. division, but he's too small (literally) to be a heavyweight. However, considering that's probably one of the reasons KUSHIDA jumped ship, and it's even MORE likely Ospreay would jump ship, NJPW is giving him the world.
Ospreay is tall though

Would they let Shota use the Death Rider mantle overseas when he does?

Can't imagine Mox is sticking around NJPW long term, would like to see his son inherit the title.
I'm not sure if there's a predecent for this but he's kind of got more of a character now already than any other Young Lions, so I guess it's not impossible?
Still wouldn't get my hopes up too much.

Legitimate question

Who is Ring of Honor's target audience in 2019?

- Marks who have been going for so long they'll just watch anything you put in front of them

- Nerds who want non-WWE wrestling so they just picked the most popular one even though it has sucked for years

- People who like Marty Scurll and Flip Gordon for some reason
