AEW Revolution 2023: 10 Things That Must Happen

8. Wardlow Becomes TNT Champ

Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke once crooned, "Everything in its right place".

Maybe Thom and the boys could be convinced to provide the soundtrack for a video package montage showing Wardlow regaining the TNT Title from Samoa Joe at Revolution. That just needs to happen, because it felt like a major mistake to take the belt from him in the first place.

Joe will be needed to help kickstart the next chapter of ROH goodness soon, so he can't have any AEW gold over his shoulder when that time comes. Besides, big Wardlow didn't deserve to get cut off at the knees creatively anyway.

This is Tony Khan's chance to rectify that error, strap the rocket to Wardlow's back yet again and reestablish him as the best midcard champ in the entire company. If Samoa Joe wins, then Wardlow is probably done in the unstoppable, occasionally Goldberg-esque babyface monster who powerbombs the t*ts off everyone in sight role.
