AEW Revolution 2023: 10 Nightmares That Could Come True
The wacky world in which Bryan Danielson as AEW World Champion is BAD.
Revolution is a big night for AEW and Tony Khan.
Dynamite's booking has been choppy, Rampage's ratings are in the toilet, and there's a prevailing air of mediocrity heading into this Sunday's pay-per-view. If that sounds far too negative, then you're in for a treat! There isn't much room for positivity here - not in an article looking at the absolute worst that could happen this weekend.
MJF represents one of the bright sparks Khan can point to right now. His AEW World Title reign is a fledgling reminder of the greatness this promotion can achieve, but it could all come crashing down (and it'd hurt inside) in San Francisco. The mere idea that sticking the top prize on someone like Bryan Danielson could be bad is...amazing, but here we are.
Other unwanted title changes may well blight Revolution and blur the scene heading into Double Or Nothing a few months from now. Then, there's the not-so-tiny threat of past failures elsewhere coming back to haunt AEW when it matters most.
Strap in, bite those fingernails and start getting worried. These Revolution 2023 nightmares are enough to make one's blood run cold.
10. House Of Black Look Like Total Losers
Build towards House Of Black challenging The Elite for the Trios Titles has revolved around Malakai's crew spooking Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks. It's been rushed, and few will be placing bets with friends on HOB taking the belts this Sunday. That'd be a foolish move.
You'd be p*ssing money down the drain.
Hopefully, if nothing else, the Black-led trio will get to look competitive against The Elite. This guy is really, really, really worried that they'll lose some 10-minute spotfest without putting up much of a fight though, and that'd suck. After all, where would House Of Black go from there?!
It's fine to put the champs over and prolong their title reign, but Tony Khan has to remember that HOB don't have many chances left to convince. Also, and this is very important, future scares/supernatural moments won't hit with fans if they're make to look like lowly jobbers who aren't on The Elite's level.
