Eventually, AEW will bring back the Big Gold Belt in some capacity
After all, a lot of people (including co-founder Cody Rhodes) do see AEW as a Spiritual Successor of sorts to WCW, only without the mismanagement issues. The big signing to be revealed at AEW Revolution 2021 is...
- The Big Show aka Paul Wight (swerving fans)
- Mick Foley
- Kurt Angle
- CM Punk
- Ryback
- Brock Lesnar
- Mark Henry (comes out of retirement)
- All Jossed, as Christian Cage was revealed as the big signing.
- Funnily enough, Mark Henry debuted for the company at Double or Nothing 2021, albeit as a coach and guest analyst for their upcoming second show rather than a wrestler.
- Likewise, both Paul Wight and CM Punk also eventually debuted.
