Live from Chris Jericho’s Rockin’ Wrestling Rager at Sea
Hosting special events like this combined with the partnership with a major name like Chris Jericho – or Le Champion, is a brilliant way for the company to turn casual fans into diehards. Fans will feel a deep, unspoken connection not only with the company but with the wrestlers themselves because of experiences like these. They will feel invested in the product for years to come.
As if it were ever that much in doubt that John Moxley would earn the No. 1 contendership for the AEW World Title – he deserves this opportunity and everything that comes with it. AEW has done an excellent job of getting its stars over rather quickly. There are also brand-new Tag Team Champions in Kenny Omega and Hangman Adam Page marking the first official title change in company history.
Page’s heel turn against The Elite feels as imminent as ever and due to the build-up surrounding it, it will be even bigger when it does eventually transpire. They are maintaining their roles for now as cautious allies and it feels a little awkward.
