10 Hidden Gem Wrestlers That Would Blow AEW Fans’ Minds
9. Aussie Open
Kyle Fletcher and Mark Davis may already be signed to a major promotion if not for the COVID-19 pandemic, the onset of which curbed the incredible momentum they'd built on the European independent scene in the years prior.
But now they're back. Having sat idle as a tandem since September 2019, Aussie Open reunited in their native Australia in February, leading, ultimately, to a hyped Match of the Year Candidate against The VeloCities for PWA Black Label. They have since returned to the United Kingdom and reclaimed it as their base, joining Will Ospreay's United Empire stable in a more that will likely take them to New Japan once international travel is less of a ball-ache.
AEW audiences would take to them immediately should they ever find themselves in Jacksonville. Fletcher and Davis are both beefy enough to hoss smaller wrestlers around the ring, with Davis' stiffness and power particularly impressive and Fletcher adding considerable beef to his once-wiry frame in recent years. These guys are no big, lumbering stiffs, though. Capable of matching any pace, they'd be right at home in an AEW tag division that often moves like lightning.
