Worlds End is this Saturday from the Addition Financial Arena in Orlando, Florida. With the Continental Classic wrapping up and numerous championships on the line, it’s set to be an explosive evening.
Continental Classic
In the first of two semifinals, Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher are set to faceoff once again. These are two of the best in-ring talents in the business, and when paired with their chemistry, it’s destined to be another hit. That being said, Fletcher has already upset Ospreay at Full Gear and it’s hard to picture him doing that again. The false finishes and reversals will be something to look forward to, but let’s go with Will Ospreay advancing.
In the other semifinal, Kazuchika Okada will take on Ricochet. Two more amazing in-ring talents, but the recent booking would seem to indicate Ricochet may be set to meet Will Ospreay in the finals. Ricochet may be the better high-flyer, but Okada may be the superior all around talent.
If this does result in Will Ospreay versus Ricochet, prepare for a flip-fest. Some will claim it’s not wrestling, while others will marvel in it’s glory. Whichever side you fall on, these two will put on an athletic show like non other. It’s both apparent that Will Ospreay is superior both in the ring and on the mic, but Tony Khan is clearly a fan. Let’s book Will Ospreay to win the Continental Classic.
World Championship
Jon Moxley will be defending his World Championship in a four-way match against Orange Cassidy, Adam Page, and Jay White. All four of these men can lay down some classic wrestling, while at the same time not afraid to bleed and get hardcore for their craft. Moxley and the Deathriders have been in control of AEW lately, so it’s hard to picture them losing power just like that. Just like on the most recent episode of Dynamite, Moxley will have the numbers advantage and reign supreme over his advisories.
AEW Dynamite Diamond Ring
MJF will put his ring on the line against Adam Cole. In a battle between two men where the gimmicks are the star of their appeal, don’t expect a wrestling clinic in this one. They are great storytellers, both on the mic and in the ring, and the match will surely still be entertaining. Does MJF ever lose these rivalries, or his Dynamite Diamond Ring? MJF to retain.
AEW Women’s World Championship
Mariah May will put her title on the line against Thunder Rosa in a Tijuana Street Fight. This match has had very little build-up or storyline on television, thus had a lackluster feel going in. While one shouldn’t expect the world, it’s safe to assume they will both do a couple nice hardcore spots. With the lack of storyline, it would lead you to assume May will retain.
AEW International Championship
Konosuke Takeshita will defend the International Championship against Powerhouse Hobbs. There is some backstory, including Don Callis and the return of Hobbs, but it isn’t the most compelling. Takeshita get’s the edge inside the ring, and neither of them can cut a promo in all honesty. Takeshita is the better talent and has the Callis push, let’s take him to retain.
TBS Championship
Mercedes Mone will defend the TBS Championship against Kris Statlander. One would think Kamille will be involved in this finish in some way after her falling out with Mone. Will Kamille cost Mone the match, or perhaps be the one in line to take it from her? Statlander is the best of the three in the ring, but Mone is the bigger name, and the fallout with Kamille is the bigger story. Mone to retain and than continue a title storyline with Kamille.
That wraps up Worlds End. The Continental Classic has been exciting to follow, and with the remaining matches all involving a championship, it’s sure to be a good one.
