AEW TNT Championship: Predicting All 8 Men In The Tournament

Last night, Cody Rhodes promised a huge AEW announcement, telling the world that it was something "Fans Have Been Clamoring For". While it wasn't the immediate halt to all televised pro-wrestling in the interests of performer safety some had hoped for, it was nonetheless one straight off the average Dynamite viewers wishlist. A mid-card championship and an 8 man tournament to go with it.

The AEW TNT Championship looks, sounds and probably even smells a lot like the old WCW Television Championship, and parading around a network-appeasing strap seems like a smart business move in these rather uncertain times.

The statement released by the company last night confirms that half of the tournaments' participants will be announced on tonight's episode of Dark, with the rest named on Wednesday Night's episode of Dynamite. As things stand the tournament will conclude at Double Or Nothing on 23 May but, and I mean surely this goes without saying at this point, that may well change as time goes on.

In the here and now though, let's take a look at the 8 men we expect to feature in the tournament, and how highly we rate their chances.
