AEW title contenders

By Scott Keith on June 12, 2023



I think we can all agree that MJF's title reign hasn't exactly set the world on fire so far. Setting aside why that may or may not be the case, do you think this makes him more or less likely to jump ship next year?

Also, who do you think should get the belt next? It seems like it's Adam Cole, but he's been pretty underwhelming as a face so far. The list of alternatives isn't very long though. Omega, Moxley and Danielson feel like the only guys with any legit top-of-the-card credibility to me. Punk's a no until further notice. Jericho, maybe, as a last hurrah before permanently moving down the card, but that ship may have already sailed. I won't even bother suggesting a certain former IWGP champ. Who else is there? I'd probably go Kenny, but my dark horse choice would be Orange Cassidy. I get the arguments against him, but he's been killing it this year and somehow managed to make the international title feel relevant.

It’ll probably be Kenny but it should be Orange Cassidy. He’s hotter than he’s ever been and carrying the show right now and they should cash in while they can.
