AEW is a company that has managed to capture the attention of many a wrestling fan thanks to the numerous fantastic feuds between wrestlers. Since the first episode of Dynamite, All Elite wrestlers have managed to delight and leave fans in awe week in week out.
As seen with the current rivalry like CM Punk and MJF, these feuds are entertaining for a variety of reasons. For starters, the promos AEW wrestlers cut on one another tend to be some of the best you'll find in pro wrestling right now.
Plus, these wrestlers have the in-ring talent to back up up everything they say, resulting in wonderful feuds that can span anywhere from a few weeks to many months.
AEW may still be a relatively new company. However, the numerous feuds that have taken place in the company have cemented the promotion as a legitimate competitor to WWE.
Here are five of the greatest feuds in AEW history so far.
#5. Kenny Omega vs. Adam Page was a match years in the making
The story of Adam Page's rise to becoming the face of AEW is a long and eventful one. As a member of Bullet Club since 2016, Page was close friends with fellow group members Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks.
When Omega and the Bucks split from the group and formed The Elite, Page left with them, staying loyal throughout the brief Bullet Club-Elite rivalry in NJPW. Eventually, when Omega and the Bucks announced their intention to start their own wrestling company, Page was one of the first to sign to the roster.
A rising star since day one in AEW, Page had an entertaining run in a tag team with Kenny Omega, with the duo reigning as Tag Team Champions for a few months. Ultimately, when Omega and the Bucks began showing signs of a heel turn, they kicked Page out of The Elite.
In the next few months, Page professed to feeling inadequate and betrayed as a result of losing his friends, losing any confidence he had in his in-ring abilities. Of course, he would finally get his long-awaited redemption when he beat Omega for the World Title, resolving their long and storied rivalry together.
#4. The Young Bucks vs. The Lucha Brothers never gets old
The Young Bucks have had some great rivalries in AEW so far. Their matches against FTR, The Butcher and the Blade, and even Hangman Page and Kenny Omega all remain equally impressive. However, it's their first major feud in AEW against the Lucha Brothers that remains the Bucks' best rivalry to date.
From the very beginning of AEW, the Bucks and the Lucha Brothers pulled out all stops, delivering a series of amazing matches that helped build fan interest. The promos they cut on each other may not compare to some of the other entries on this list, but the matches they share is what makes their feud so enjoyable. No matter the kind of match they have, they always deliver an instant classic.
#3. MJF vs. Cody Rhodes was too shortlived
Before becoming a major player in AEW, MJF gained notoriety for his relationship with Cody Rhodes. Originally, MJF appeared as a close friend and protege to the American Nightmare, accompanying him to the ring and assisting him in his rivalries. Of course, MJF would later reveal his true nature, turning on Cody and costing him his World Title match against Chris Jericho.
MJF's feud with Cody was long in the making, with the two laying the groundwork for months in advance. Unfortunately, their feud itself was shortlived. However, it did give us some amazing moments, including AEW's first cage match. It was also the first rivalry that helped push MJF forward in the company, gradually building him up as one of the best heels working today.
#2. MJF vs. his childhood hero, CM Punk
AEW has so many great things going for them right now, it's hard to single out one rivalry over another. However, as entertaining as the Page-Cole, Jericho-Kingston, or Danielson-Moxley feud has been so far, the one that has piqued fans' interest the most is MJF and CM Punk. Truthfully, it may even be the greatest rivalry either wrestler has been involved in. Not to mention that it's easily the best feud Punk or MJF have had in AEW so far.
The genius of MJF's relationship with Punk is how much personal history between the two is melded into the storyline. As mentioned in past promos, MJF grew up watching Punk, citing him as a key reason why he began wrestling in the first place.
This more personal aspect has helped add so much emotional depth to the rivalry, something that sets it apart from all other feuds. The two may have had only one match in AEW so far, but their month-long verbal feud has never grown stale.
#1. AEW's first and best feud, Jon Moxley vs. Kenny Omega
One of the first major rivalries in AEW history, Kenny Omega's match with Jon Moxley was one that fans had been pining to see for years. The two men had made names for themselves as the greatest wrestlers working today on opposite sides of the world. Their eventual confrontation in AEW was one that more than lived up to fans' expectations when they first met in 2019.
As great as this initial feud was, Moxley and Omega's rivalry would only get better in later years. With Omega essentially stealing the World Championship from Moxley in 2020, their feud would enter a new, exciting stage.
For months, Omega called in every ally he had--the Good Brothers, the Young Bucks, and even KENTA--against the one-man wrecking crew, Jon Moxley. The matches the two had were always entertaining, their promos more than solid, and the feud never grew tired or boring.
