11 Huge AEW All Out 2021 Predictions You Need To Know

8. Jon Moxley vs. Satoshi Kojima

Going by his social media activity, Satoshi Kojima is a sweet, good-hearted man who didn't deserve the weird backlash this match's announcement got. He isn't a name like Hiroshi Tanahashi but he is, indeed, a legend, as a former IWGP Heavyweight and Triple Crown Champion. Sometimes, it's best to accept you have a gap in your knowledge and receive someone as a big deal rather than assuming your lack of familiarity means they aren't important.

The first big lariat should placate however many doubters remain. Jon Moxley will be cognisant of the "meh" reaction to this bout being put together and will be fired up to correct that. He will do so using violence, inflicted by and against him, ensuring a man he surely respects deeply will leave Chicago having made an impression.

There isn't a case for Kojima winning here. Unless AEW is to start portraying Moxley as being down on his luck, which would be a wretched idea, the full-timer must go over. Stars are to be protected, not sacrificed.

Winner: Jon Moxley
