Spoilers on Participants Planned for AEW Continental Classic – AEW’s Continental Classic tournament is shaping up to be one of the most exciting competitions of the year, with official participant announcements set to drop later today during “Selection Sunday.”
Daniel Garcia, fresh off his TNT Championship victory at AEW Full Gear, has already declared his entry into the tournament, joining reigning AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada, who will put his title on the line. Both men promise to bring intense competition to this prestigious round-robin event.
Fightful Select has provided insight into other potential participants being considered for the tournament. The rumored lineup includes:
- Kyle Fletcher, fresh from a breakout win against Will Ospreay at Full Gear.
- Ricochet, whose high-flying ability could add a unique dynamic to the tournament.
- Will Ospreay, known for his relentless determination and world-class skill.
- Darby Allin, the daredevil with a never-say-die attitude.
- Shelton Benjamin, bringing decades of experience and technical expertise to the table.
- Claudio Castagnoli, a powerhouse and former champion with a reputation for consistency.
The Continental Classic’s round-robin format, which was introduced last year, splits 12 competitors into two leagues. Each wrestler competes in five matches within their league, earning points (three for a win, one for a draw) in pursuit of advancing to the finals. The ultimate winner is expected to be crowned at Worlds End in December.
Stay tuned for AEW’s official announcement later today to see which competitors will vie for glory in the second-ever Continental Classic. This year’s tournament is already looking stacked and could be a defining moment for the stars involved.
