Huge AEW Match Made For Vacant Championship

After one AEW championship was vacated due to injury, a huge match has been made that will see a new champion crowned.

At Double Or Nothing, Adam Copeland defeated Malakai Black in a barbed wire steel cage match to retain the TNT Championship but that win came at a major cost. During the match, Copeland set Black up on a table before ascending the cage but his leap from the top went wrong as he landed on his feet, giving Black a glancing blow to send him through the table.

Adam Copeland has revealed he needs surgery on a broken tibia following the spot and that means he will be out of action for quite some time. AEW’s EVPs The Young Bucks took matters into their own hands in regards to Copeland’s title on Dynamite in Los Angeles as they stripped him of the title. Their true intentions then became clear as they vowed to hand the title to Jack Perry – the only member of The Elite without a championship.

AEW Ladder Match Made To Crown New TNT Champion

However, Christopher Daniels – who had been fired by The Young Bucks previously – returned with the new title of Interim EVP and relayed a message from Tony Khan that the next TNT Champion will be crowned via a ladder match at Forbidden Door and if Perry wants the gold he’ll have to earn it like everybody else.

Qualifying matches will take place for the ladder match and it was noted by Daniels that no interference or seconds will be allowed for those matches. The first of those matches will take place on Rampage as Konosuke Takeshita faces Penta El Zero Miedo.
