I don't honestly feel that AEW will die a death, barring Tony Herb Abramsing himself and Danielson selling to TKO for that guaranteed HOF spot. I mean, Impact is still around.

But losing Starks would be the kind of loss that could be comparable to a Steve Austin leaving WCW. I am not comparing Starks' potential career trajectory to Austin's at all. What I mean is, he could be that midcard guy who anyone with sense could see would be someone that the front office doesn't see shit in, then goes to WWE and finds the missing pieces and reaches the level everyone with sense saw he had.

And given the right opportunity can fully maximize his potential.
