John Bradshaw Layfield said professional wrestling now has more talent across the industry than at any point he has seen, citing strength well beyond WWE and AEW.
Four major weekly promotion schedules help show that depth, he said, with WWE and AEW running up to four shows a week while TNA and MLW add regular Thursday and Saturday programs.
JBL pointed to AEW's Mike Bailey and Josh Alexander, along with Texas independent wrestler Will Allday, as standouts fans should watch.
Comparing today with the Attitude Era and WCW, he said top rosters were loaded then but independent scenes were not, whereas training schools and broader access have now raised talent across the board.
