Eddie Kingston.

TNT Title.

New York City.

This combination of things could only get sweeter if Tony Khan decides to fork out for DMX's Ruff Rider's Anthem to soundtrack the Mad King's hometown victory, which would be the most crowd-pleasing way to cap the 22 September Grand Slam show.

There's more to this pick than sentimental fantasy booking, though. The finish to Kingston's first battle with Miro suggests a rematch. With the referee tending to the exposed turnbuckle, their attention therefore diverted, Miro low-blowed Kingston, shortcutting his way out of a fight that had him in clear danger on several occasions. Eddie's nuts, not Miro's, were redeemed.

Such writing isn't typical of AEW, but the sequel is right there nonetheless.
