4. Orange Cassidy Tries (6.7 Million Views)

This clip highlights Orange Cassidy as a focal point as he wrestles PAC at AEW Revolution, a match which far exceeded expectations of comedic darling Cassidy’s in-ring work.

It starts with ‘The Bastard’ PAC intensely staring daggers at Cassidy who holds up his hands to the sky and goes to put them in his pockets, only for PAC to stop him midway so Cassidy in return flips him inside out with an arm drag. From there the two swap passive shin kicks (which would hilariously spawn "this is awesome" and "fight forever" chants from the crowd) and Cassidy counters PAC and drop kicks him/kip-up, looking like a bona fide star as the crowd cheer him on.

The match would end with Cassidy gaining momentum with a Superman Punch and Stundog Millionaire only to fall victim to a lariat and Brutalizer from PAC which would score him the submission win. PAC refused to break the hold afterwards, having gotten so frustrated with Orange getting the better of him throughout.

Even though he lost, Cassidy got over as much as PAC did with the win in such a fun match. Orange would swap between his ‘King of Sloth Style’ moveset to being stealthily capable at wrestling which would piss PAC off more and more. Fans were hooked on every move throughout. It was Cassidy’s AEW singles debut, with mainstream fans previously not seeing the brilliance that Cassidy could pull off in matches.
