AEW World Title Tournament: 8-Man Bracket
Round 1:
MJF vs. Darby Allin
- Winner: MJF
- MJF, ever the master manipulator, uses his underhanded tactics to win this grudge match. Darby pushes MJF to his limit, but MJF capitalizes with a low blow behind the referee’s back and steals the victory with the Dynamite Diamond Ring.
Jon Moxley vs. Will Ospreay
- Winner: Jon Moxley
- A brutal contest filled with hard strikes and brawling. Ospreay dazzles with his high-flying offense, but Moxley’s relentless aggression prevails. After a wild, blood-soaked match, Moxley hits a Paradigm Shift onto a steel chair to pin Ospreay.
Swerve Strickland vs. Kenny Omega
- Winner: Kenny Omega
- A back-and-forth match of contrasting styles. Swerve is the more technical and calculated competitor, but Omega’s explosive, high-intensity offense wins the day. Omega finishes the match with a V-Trigger followed by the One-Winged Angel.
Hangman Adam Page vs. Kazuchika Okada
- Winner: Kazuchika Okada
- A hard-hitting, technical masterclass. Hangman looks to be on the verge of victory after a Buckshot Lariat, but Okada counters with the Rainmaker to secure the win.
Semi-Finals:
MJF vs. Jon Moxley
- Winner: Jon Moxley
- This is an intense brawl, with Moxley looking for a fight at every turn. MJF tries to cheat and weasel his way out, but Moxley counters his tricks, outlasting MJF’s mind games. After a violent exchange, Moxley locks in a choke and forces MJF to pass out, advancing to the finals.
Kenny Omega vs. Kazuchika Okada
- Winner: Kenny Omega
- An all-time classic. The two share an incredible back-and-forth, showing off their legendary chemistry. Omega survives the Rainmaker and Okada’s other big moves, eventually hitting a devastating V-Trigger and the One-Winged Angel to secure the victory and advance to the finals.
Finals:
Jon Moxley vs. Kenny Omega
- Winner: Kenny Omega
- The finals are a brutal, no-holds-barred encounter with both men showing their toughness. Moxley looks to use his experience in hardcore matches to wear down Omega, but Omega’s superior speed and precision get the better of him. The match spills to the outside, where Omega delivers a V-Trigger into the steel steps. Omega then delivers the One-Winged Angel onto the exposed concrete to win the tournament and become the new AEW World Champion.
Tournament Structure Notes:
- The tournament takes place across a few weeks of AEW Dynamite or culminates in a PPV event (possibly “Full Gear” or a special “Tournament of Champions” event).
- Key Storylines/Build-Up:
- MJF’s mind games and manipulations continue to shine, but his eventual downfall to Moxley sets up a possible future feud between the two.
- Moxley vs. Omega is a dream match that ends with Omega finally getting the win after an emotionally and physically exhausting battle.
- Omega’s victory cements him as the AEW World Champion, while also setting up future challengers like Moxley, MJF, and others who will want to claim the title.
Aftermath:
- Omega’s victory would set the stage for new rivalries, with Jon Moxley possibly challenging him first, given their brutal clash. Swerve Strickland and Hangman Adam Page would also likely be in the mix, while Kazuchika Okada could return for a future showdown with Omega after the tournament.
