Rumors of AEW having fewer championships within the promotion may very well be true sooner somewhat than later. In line with Fightful Select, AEW sources claim that the AEW International Championship and the Continental Championship could soon be merged in some capability.
Fightful reported that the pitch to mix Kenny Omega’s International Championship he won from Konosuke Takeshita at Revolution and Kazuchika Okada’s Continental Championship was brought up quite a lot of months ago. The outlet reported that many in the corporate considered it a firm creative plan. It wasn’t immediately known who would carry the combined championship or if the titles can be carried together or rebranded. Fightful reported they’d not heard if Okada versus Omega is an element of the plan.
Okada successfully defended his Continental Championship for the eleventh time against Brody King at Revolution. As of this writing, creative plans for Okada moving forward into AEW Dynasty in April usually are not yet clear. AEW President Tony Khan announced the Dynasty International Eliminator tournament on Tuesday that began on “AEW Dynamite” on Wednesday. The winner will go on to face Omega on the pay-per-view.
