5 Wrestlers Who Could Be The Joker In AEW's Casino Battle Royale (And 5 Who Won't)
8. Could Be - Moose
Moose is due to challenge Kenny Omega for the IMPACT World Championship at Against All Odds on 12 June, but who's to say he won't show up in AEW before that?
It's been well-documented that his contract is set to expire in June, with 'The Wrestling God' himself denying that he's re-signed with IMPACT. A full-time jump from the Anthem-helmed promotion to AEW, much like what Ortiz, Santana, Ethan Page, and others all did, is plausible. After all, the former TNA World Heavyweight Champion is clearly liked by the executives, considering his role in All In's Over Budget Battle Royale. Despite the fact he was the first guy eliminated from the match - cheers, Marko Stunt - his inclusion speaks for itself.
Should Moose enter, he must dominate. He doesn't necessarily have to win the thing, but a handful of eliminations along the way would help him massively, including one massive name. Jungle Boy, see you later.
Ever since the Forbidden Door was opened, there's been a lack of IMPACT stars going elsewhere. It's always been about the AEW and New Japan names heading to IMPACT, aside from the Good Brothers in AEW. This is what detracted a bit from Omega vs. Rich Swann at Rebellion last month.
The same mistake cannot be made with Omega vs. Moose.
