Buick LeSabre and Kotex Ibushi should've cashed in and signed with the E..The CWC was 4 yrs ago..They could've made way more money in those 4 yrs than did going the route they did..And where are both of them right now?..How many IWGP World Heavyweight titles has either held?..There were 4 WK main events since the CWC and only Kota managed to be in the main event match 1 time..Only thing Buick has done is win the 2018 New Japan Cup..Ibushi had a 2 month IC title run, won the Never title and lost it a month later, lost the main event of WK, and had 4 month tag run with Tana..He hasn't been treated like the star y'all claim he is..He's been a solid B+ player at best..I guarantee both could've made more money in WWE, left after 4 yrs, signed with NJPW and be in almost the exact same spots they're in now..So tell me again how signing with WWE would've been so terrible..
It is all about money with you.
Neither have strong Promotionals, so they would be SUPER limited.
Ibushi would have been on 205 Live doing skits would Drew Gulak.
Sabre, not even sure what he would be up to. Probably rubbing elbows with Thatcher and Lorcan.
Money isn't the argument. THey are still viewed as LEGIT in 2020, we know that wouldn't have been the case had they been in WWE.
So nah, it ain't the same spot man.
