AEW has revealed the brackets for this year’s edition World Title Eliminator Tournament. Looking at the landscape, we could very well be headed to a Bryan Danielson vs. Jon Moxley showdown to crown the next #1 contender.
The main event of Saturday’s AEW Dynamite saw Danielson defeat Bobby Fish in singles action via submission. After the match, AEW ended the show by giving fans of glimpse of what’s in store.
First Round matches include:
- 10 vs. Jon Moxley
- Orange Cassidy vs. Powerhouse Hobbs
- Dustin Rhodes vs. Bryan Danielson
- Lance Archer vs. Eddie Kingston
This tournament will begin next week on Rampage where Orange Cassidy will face Will Hobbs. The following Dynamite episode will feature Bryan Danielson vs. Dustin Rhodes and Lance Archer vs. Eddie Kingston matches.
There is no word so far on when the match between number 10 of the Dark Order and the former AEW champion Jon Moxley will be taking place.
What’s interesting to note here is that the leaked AEW Full Gear card had Bryan Danielson facing Jon Moxley in a singles match. It seemed out of place at the time because these two haven’t been feuding.
Though now that the brackets have been revealed and both the stars are confirmed to be on the opposing sides, it wouldn’t be a surprise if they end up facing each other in the finals of the tournament at the upcoming show.
Which of these stars do you think should win the title tournament and get a shot at the world heavyweight championship? Let us know in the comment section.
