It feels like WWE has over the past several months finally accepted the fact that AEW is here to stay and is reaching a level of influence/prestige close to their's, kinda what WCW was to WWE around 1994-Early 1995. We all know that they've been hoarding talent for years now to stop any promotion from gaining momentum, and it is clear that strategy is no longer going to work. Now that there are plenty of options for talent, I think WWE recognises there's no point in having such a bloated roster anymore that is just wasting money and is cutting anyone that isn't worth their salary (such as anyone who has little relevence anymore, anyone who negotiated hard for a better contract and any top guys that are not delivering the goods anymore).

So yeah, might as well release a bunch of wrestlers and hope that works against AEW in some way in that signing those guys will bloat AEW's roster further and possibly create opportunities where some prospects jump ship in the future because they've realised they're not going to get any higher on the ladder (similar to how HHH, Austin and Foley ultimately went from WCW to WWE).

Also, at this point, WWE should just go back to uniting the RAW and Smackdown brands and just build two or three big matches/angles on each show. They'll be better off having some of their top stars appear in angles to hype up their feuds on one show then wrestle on the other show.

As for Wyatt, I'm sure he'll fit right in with IMPACT Wrestling. They could really use with something similar to what Matt Hardy provided years ago and Wyatt could be the perfect person to fill that void (as in, similar to his Firefly Funhouse promos and the occassional cinematic match).
