Wardlow earned a shot at the TNT Championship and the title of 'Face Of The Revolution' following a gruelling ladder match victory at Revolution.

'The Wardog' outlasted Christian Cage, Powerhouse Hobbs, Keith Lee, Ricky Starks and Orange Cassidy in a brutal ladder war to become only the second man to hold the comical brass ring prop, and will take on the winner of Sammy Guevara Vs Scorpio Sky on this Wednesday's edition of Dynamite.

Still currently under the employ of Maxwell Jacob Friedman as of writing, Wardlow will currently be required to hand the belt over to him if he wins it, though there have been flashes of dissension between the pair lately that could foreshadow a deeper rift should Wardlow get it done. Wardlow grew increasingly wary of both Friedman and Shawn Spears on the Revolution go-home episode of Dynamite.

Though he's helped secure the Dynamite Diamond Ring for MJF, The Pinnacle's biggest weapon hasn't yet managed to win a title in AEW himself. Regardless of the eventual outcome for the TNT strap, this win provides his best opportunity to date.
