Will Moxley\u2019s story arc see the Death Rider leader become a walking tragedy?<\/p>\n
Continental Classic <\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\nCurrent Continental Champion, Kazuchika Okada, started his reign after defeating triple champion, Eddie Kingston. It was also where this long-term, multi-year story formed. The Rainmaker\u2019s heel characterisation as an ageing star clinging to shortcuts to glory began<\/u><\/a>. Last year, Okada went all the way, despite initial setbacks and doubt.<\/p>\nLooming on the horizon is a potential clash with Don Callis Family stablemate and IWGP World Heavyweight champion, Konosuke Takeshita. However, the Rainmaker\u2019s first round match is against another stablemate, Kyle Fletcher. The former TNT Champion has an axe to grind after losing his TNT Championship. A semi-finalist last year, Fletcher isn\u2019t going to give Okada ground. The potential story of a Don Callis fracture may begin.<\/p>\n
Speaking of, Jon Moxley must take on CMLL\u2019s Mascara Dorada. The Death Rider learner always comes back with vicious ferocity after a loss. Yet against a man who can dodge, weave, and fly like air, is a rebound win academic? Or like Okada, is the potential fall from grace building?<\/p>\n
Darby Allin vs. Kevin Knight will be a banger. I wouldn\u2019t doubt Allin\u2019s ability to weave a compelling story into this aerial assault of a match.<\/p>\n
Babes of Wrath vs. Sisters of Sin<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\nThe first AEW Women\u2019s World Tag Team Championship semi-final match happens on Wednesday. A clash of personalities will see the high-energy and happy Babes of Wrath fight the gothic, horror-inspired duo of Sisters of Sin. Featuring four of the division\u2019s most popular women, and likely still running on the adrenaline of their Blood and Guts and Fall Gear performances, this could be a banger.<\/p>\n
Willow Nightingale has the power advantage. Harley Cameron has that eternal underdog deceptiveness. Skye Blue is consistently, whether there is plunder or not, one of the toughest women in the division. Julia Hart continues to defy her age and relatively short experience. It feels like this match could go either way.<\/p>\n
Yet, like previous tournament matches, is there likely to be outside interference from Thekla? Or will Jamie Hayter or someone else neutralize the threat posed by the Toxic Spider?<\/p>\n
One of the other joys of booking this tournament is that, outside of each bracket match, competitors have interacted to lay the foundations for the next round’s story. \u00a0The Timeless Love Bombs still need to name their semi-final stipulation. It\u2019s going to be interesting to see how the winners interact with their finalist opponents.<\/p>\n
