Likelihood of WWE & AEW crossover somewhere down the road in future

Ever since its inception, AEW has been taking shots at WWE at regular intervals. Moreover, AEW President Tony Khan never failed to make a commotion with his sarcastic remarks on their rival promotion. However, WWE claims that they do not consider AEW to be their rival. Furthermore, in an interview, Triple H said that WWE is always open to a business relationship with AEW.

However, WWE President Tony Khan appeared to be sceptical of the idea. He has always claimed that AEW’s product is superior to WWE’s. Therefore, the crossover between the two promotions looks distant. However, it would be interesting to see if the Forbidden Door between AEW and WWE ever opens. If it happens, it will bring with it some of the most historic moments in wrestling history.
