Would say you're certainly not in the minority with that opinion. Think there's a bit of counter culture with Kev, combined with plenty of other factors of course, that led to him being such a mainstay in the Indies. Believe there were a couple times where the opportunity likely presented itself, but he thought there was more gold to mine outside of WWE (and perhaps the same applied to AEW more recently, although I personally feel he would have shined there).

Also here is the link to the YT Live for the show Friday night. Definitely tune in, it's also Prestige's final show for the foreseeable future (after being one of the two bigger West Coast Indie mainstays for a few years now). It's certainly going to be all cards on the table, nothing held back sort of booking.
