The competition between AEW and WWE is fierce. It is unlikely that this interpromotional war will come to an end anytime soon. Over the years, the Stamford-based company has signed several former All Elite Wrestling names. Interestingly, this phenomenon is only getting started.According to a recent Fightful Select report, former AEW duo The Righteous are close to joining World Wrestling Entertainment. Vincent and Dutch's last match took place in April 2025 on ROH on HonorClub #113, where they and The Premier Athletes defeated Spanish Announce Project and The Kingdom. They eventually left the Jacksonville-based company in May. However, after an absence of 160 days, they finally made an appearance on the September 19th DEFY Wrestling show.Vincent and Dutch unexpectedly appeared at DEFY Wrestling's AEON event. The WWE-bound duo attacked Midnight Heat (Eddie Pearl & Ricky Gibson) after their match. Furthermore, Vincent declared that he and his tag team partner mean business.Former WWE Star Karrion Kross Reveals that Bray Wyatt Wanted Him and The Righteous in His FactionFormer NXT Champion Karrion Kross left WWE following the expiration of his contract. Even though he was one of the most popular names on the roster, Triple H booked him poorly.On his YouTube channel last month, the 40-year-old revealed a shocking piece of information. Kross said that the late Bray Wyatt wanted him and The Righteous to form a group as an extension of The Wyatt Sicks."You know The Righteous? Dutch and Vinny? Bray wanted to start with the Sicks, but he wanted to expand, and one of his ideas was to have me, Vinny, and Dutch as, like, an extension of the Wyatt faction. He had a totally different name for it and everything. We were gonna be on another show, like RAW," Kross said. [H/T: Ringside News]If the rumors are to be believed, The Righteous would be a great signing by WWE. It remains to be seen what the future holds for them.
