Current AEW Tag Team Champion Luchasaurus is a fan favorite. Standing at 6'5", he is powerful but can move with the speed of a cruiserweight.
His gimmick may hold him back, especially if he wants to be taken seriously as a main event performer, but like Strowman, there is the potential for Luchasaurus to become a singles star if he's given a chance to strike out on his own. An inevitable heel turn against his tag partner would immediately give him immense heat. With his masked persona, he can also look to Kane for inspiration on how to craft a menacing character that has a mystique.

#3. Pinnacle member Wardlow

Wardlow is slowly coming into his own as a performer. When he is allowed to tear it up in the ring, Wardlow looks and carries himself like a megastar.
In terms of physique, he is very much similar to Braun Strowman. He also got his start by being part of a faction in The Pinnacle, like how Strowman was part of the Wyatt Family. Wardlow has the raw tools to be a star in the business. He is being pushed strongly right now and looks to go into a feud with MJF. 2022 might be the year Wardlow explodes into the AEW main event.
