Two of the championships in AAW<\/strong> Pro<\/strong> will be decided at AAW<\/strong> Never<\/strong> Say<\/strong> Die<\/strong><\/em> 2019 on 115 Bourbon Street in Chicago. It\u2019s been a long time coming for Trey<\/strong> Miguel<\/strong> getting a title shot in AAW Pro but will he make the most of the opportunity against the undefeated AAW Heritage champion? The women\u2019s division will be getting a shot of adrenaline from rising independent sensation Kris<\/strong> Statlander<\/strong> against the gothic Priscilla<\/strong> Kelly<\/strong>. The tag team championship match has some major show-stopping potential and Sami<\/strong> Callihan<\/strong> will be defending the AAW Heavyweight championship against an unknown opponent so let\u2019s break down the full card on June 28.<\/p>\n

Eddie Kingston and Curt Stallion vs FireFox (“Hot Fire” Myron Reed and AR Fox)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The WRSTLING<\/strong> faction in AAW has gone through some major changes in 2019 but it appears as though Curt Stallion will be the next breakthrough talent now that Jeff<\/strong> Cobb<\/strong> and Trevor<\/strong> Lee<\/strong> have made their departures from the faction and AAW Pro. “The Mad King” is such an impressive ringleader that he became the AAW tag team champion last year with David<\/strong> Starr<\/strong> and now looks to take Stallion to superstardom. AR Fox and Myron Reed have gelled so well since becoming a tag team months ago because \u201cHot Fire\u201d looks up to AR Fox and compliments his super athletic ring style all too well. A tag team title shot should go to the winners and FireFox have champions written all over them.
\nPrediction: FireFox wins.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The Alien” Kris Statlander vs Priscilla Kelly<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Kris Statlander has a serious future ahead of her after only two years in pro wrestling, she keeps getting better with every match and she has a very innovative move-set to go with her impressive stamina. Joey<\/strong> Janela<\/strong> experienced the best from the\u00a0Pat Buck<\/strong> protege\u00a0in BEYOND<\/strong> Wrestling<\/strong> where Statlander exploded with a 450 Splash. Both females are specialists in inter-gender wrestling but they must have their sights on AAW women\u2019s champion, Jessicka<\/strong> Havoc<\/strong>, to advance up the card in AAW. Priscilla Kelly is a former SHINE<\/strong> Nova champion, she knows how to get ultra aggressive but Statlander may be on another level on this night.<\/p>\n

AAW Heritage Championship: Jake Something (C) vs “The Fresh Prince Of Mid-Air” Trey Miguel<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Trey Miguel has steadily risen through the ranks in AAW from the opening match to becoming a name on Impact<\/strong> Wrestling<\/strong> weekly and it\u2019s paid off finally with a title opportunity. The chances of Miguel walking away with the gold are about split because Something doesn\u2019t seem to be losing any time soon. When Jimmy Jacobs got his first shot at the AAW Heritage championship last month, Jake Something left with the title and that\u2019s a big deal pinning a former AAW Heavyweight champion. This would be the perfect win for Trey Miguel, holding down the upper mid-card spot as one of the best aerialists to offer but Jake Something may use his size advantage to retain.
\nPrediction: Jake Something retains AAW Heritage championship.<\/strong><\/p>\n

AAW Tag Team Championships: LAX (C) (Santana and Ortiz) vs The Besties In The World (Davey Vega and Matt Fitchett) vs The Rascalz (Dezmond Xavier and Zachary Wentz)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Rascalz lost their cool after losing to The Besties In The World at AAW<\/strong> Bad<\/strong> Times<\/strong> At<\/strong> The<\/strong> Blue<\/strong> Genie<\/strong><\/em> in a moment of rare frustration. It was an inside cradle loss but nevertheless, it has added to The Rascalz’ losing streak in AAW and it\u2019s reached its boiling point with all three teams involved for the titles. Vega and Fitchett have really lost much of their former popularity by using many heel tactics and losing Scarlett<\/strong> Bordeaux<\/strong> in their corner. The theme music doesn\u2019t get much more fun than when The Besties make their entrance but it\u2019s going to take more than singing and dancing to get the job done against LAX. This being a Three-Way should benefit the champions with the other two teams fighting it out because Santana recovering from an injury and being forced to miss the last AAW event. This is tough to call with all three teams always being in the title mix but perhaps it\u2019s time for The Rascalz to take their claim as one of the worlds best teams by winning the titles back.
\nPrediction: The Rascalz retains the AAW tag team championships.<\/strong><\/p>\n
