WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H might want to bag the signing on pro wrestling veteran Taz’s son, Hook.
It was noted by Better Wrestling Experience that ‘The Game’ wants to sign the 24-year-old Hook, as does WWE Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative Shawn Michaels, likely for obvious reasons such as his look and connection with fans, and his second generation roots.
Hook’s father, AEW commentator Taz, also reportedly wants his son in WWE, likely for obvious reasons as well such as exposure and experience, among others.
It has been noted that while Hook’s AEW contract status/terms have not been confirmed, it was speculated that he is the “easiest catch” for WWE right now, and that he could be the first of many to leave for WWE.
Hook remains undefeated in AEW after working 33 singles and tag team/multi-man matches. He made his pro wrestling debut on the December 10, 2021 edition of AEW Rampage with a submission win over Fuego Del Sol.
Hook started out as a heel on what was known as Team Taz, but after a quick rise in popularity, he is working as a babyface and is currently aligned with The Hardys.
Meanwhile, Fightful Select suggested that WWE sources indicated to Fightful that while there would “absolutely” be interest in The Elite (Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks & Hangman Adam Page) if they were to become free agents, WWE are “nowhere near being legally able to talk to any of them.”
Sources close to The Young Bucks reportedly denied rumors that the Jacksons had reached out to WWE last year.
