10 First AEW Wrestlers To Win The Triple Crown

"Belt. Collect-TOR! Belt. Collect-TOR! Belt. Collect-TOR!"

Kenny Omega was draped in gold before - it wouldn't be a stretch for such a thing to happen again, especially considering that he's yet another from an extremely exclusive club to be two thirds of the way there.

It's astonishing what he managed to achieve in the physical condition that has ultimately resulted in a sustained and prolonged exit as he deals with a litany of nagging injury concerns. Between 2019 and his loss to Hangman Page at Revolution 2021, 'The Best Bout Machine' masked a host of problems to assemble an awesome in-ring run, a once-in-a-generation storyline and indeed aid the outward image that All Elite Wrestling really could foster some of the best bell-to-bell action in the world,

Compared to all of that, figuring out a way for him to slide back into action with a TNT Title run is a piece of p*ss. If he's physically able, the rest will take care of itself.
