10 Dream Opponents For Brodie Lee’s AEW TNT Title Reign
1. Dustin Rhodes
No one in the world wrestles like Dustin Rhodes when he's fighting with heart, and nothing is closer to his heart than his own family. Given what Brodie Lee did to his brother Cody and his own assault from the hands of the Dark Order, Dustin has a natural bloody feud in the tank with the current TNT Champion.
The match between these two would be personal, heated and unflinchingly brutal. Dustin has proven to be capable of supreme excellence inside the ring recently, working emotionally provocative belters with Cody and Lance Archer. In his twilight years as an in ring competitor, the man moves as well as he ever has and wrestles with a lifetime of experience. In AEW, he is the old gunslinger, with every aching duel being the one that could end it all, willing to risk everything he's ever had for the sake of the one thing that truly matters.
If given sufficient build and time to work their narrative as profoundly as possible, Lee and Rhodes could easily have the definitive match for the TNT championship, and would get fans hooked on every interaction regardless of the outcome. We don't know how much more time we'll get with Dustin as an in ring competitor. This is an essential match to add to his legacy while we're still lucky enough to have him.
