Hangman is 100% going to win the title, but there is money in a Bryan and Punk title match with Kenny. AEW are going to make that money and then make Hangman a big(ger) star.

Neither of those people are going to wrestle Kenny Omega at All Out.

Orange Cassidy..... I think he's ready for a singles match title shot

Is there any sign whatsoever that Christian is the one getting the title shot or are people just doomposting because they just assume AEW is gonna do the worst possible option?

Tony Khan didn't sign his favorite wrestler in a heavily hyped debut and then immediately have him stare down Omega for them to not do the match.

It would be kind of silly for Hangman to get a title shot at All Out when he just lost a match where his opportunity was on the line.

I get it, I'd be just as mad if I saw a headline that said "Beaver Boys vs Young Bucks No Longer All Out" but thems the breaks

StarkRavingMad posted:

When he was getting the first title shot, people were calling him AEW’s Roman Reigns, just some friend of the EVPs that was going to be overpushed and rammed down everyone’s throats but was actually mid-card unremarkable

Yeah, I wasn't watching WWE so I wouldn't have made the Roman comparison but it definitely had an air of "this is the guy you'll like" about it. The way they separated him from the EVPs was essential to the hard working underdog story and they've handled it beautifully.

Maybe the fact that I didn't watch Roman-era WWE is why I'm more optimistic about how this will all play out. I've yet to have my faith destroyed by wrestling.

JB had his shot, if we're looking at rankings/build possibilities, it's gotta be Christian or OC, and you could argue OC already had his shot too sooooooo

Jungle Boy vs. Christian in a No. 1 contender's match
Jungle Boy wins; Christian turns heel and beats JB down afterwards, rendering him unable to compete for the title
Darby is too focused on Punk to challenge Kenny
Kenny pulls rank on Orange to deny him the shot, says he's already had his chance

OC said "this isnt over." after DoN and the way that match went down he does have a valid claim to another shot.

OC/Kenny is also a good main event for All Out. Personally I would prefer OC on TV (I was thinking First Dance but clearly that card doesnt need more juice) and Christian at All Out but either way is fine.

OC had 2 visual pins and only lost to a roll up after he had Kenny pinned for 3 but Aubrey was still running to the ring.

Also btw Punk/Darby isn't main eventing over the title. That's not happening, not in a million years, if anything it should OPEN the show.

Now, MJF/Jericho for Jericho's career?

Thaaaaaaat might main event over the title.

When you've been building a long-term story between a massively over fiery babyface and an incredibly popular heel champ, you pounce on the opportunity to make that title match the main event of your PPV, which is why Thunder Rosa-Britt Baker should headline All Out

LOL I was re-watching the Nick Gage match, and I see what you guys meant about JR being pissed off.

JR: "Oh this is fun. THIS IS FUUUUN."

And then deafening silence as Schiavone tries to salvage it by saying AEW is the home to heart pounding excitement :lol:

him yelling "for the love of god stop it!" during the pizza cutter spot sounded like a mix of genuine disgust and him being one of the best play-by-play guys ever. it was great, even if he actually hated it.
