1. Kenny Omega Vs. Kota Ibushi

The main event of AEW Full Gear 2021 utterly lived up to the anticipation it had built and was the perfect ending to a fantastic PPV. However, while the match itself was full of brilliance, there was a tiny moment before it started, which was utterly mesmerising and subtle.

Just before entering the ring, Omega looked out to the crowd, and there, right in front of him, was a sign simply reading, "What would Kota think?". To any casual fan, that might have meant nothing, but to a fan of the Golden Lovers, it was the next piece of lore in their ever continuing saga.

These wrestlers careers have grown together, and neither would be where they are today without the other. The long-lasting story between them, filled with love, betrayal and Golden Star Powerbombs, has been what they've built their careers around, so with Omega's current star power, the stage is set for something truly special.

Now, fans have hardly been starved of seeing Ibushi and Omega compete. But, as of right now, the context and circumstances would make this feel like an entirely new experience, which could be historic.

2022 would be a year to remember if the Golden Lovers met inside an AEW ring.
