Hopefully things change for the better now that Marty Scurll is the head booker
If they were willing to do this for him, it does make me puzzled as to how far this idea went down the pike for the EVPs of AEW before AEW was a thing. Maybe they weren't interested at all. If they didn't offer it at all to them and decided to do it now...that's...weird.

I doubt we'll ever know what exactly happened there. You have three sides there between the Elite, ROH, and NJPW. The first crew sans Cody won't stop spinning conspiracy theories to Meltzer, the second crew are delusional, and the third crew haven't and will never talk on the subject.
Right. That's why I wonder if The Elite were really interested if the proposition was actually broached to them. Something makes me think that if ROH offered it at some point, it would have been leaked (to the detriment of ROH, so leaked by The Elite).
If it wasn't offered to them but was to Scurll, it reeks of desperation.
