It was announced earlier tonight that Swerve Strickland and Bryan Danielson, who won their respective matches at WrestleDream PPV, will be the two men who will compete to earn this opportunity. Neither man has gotten the chance to compete in a match for this specific title.
Swerve Strickland proved himself last Sunday against "Hangman" Adam Page after claiming that he should have been the one given the opportunities that Page was given throughout his AEW career.

The former WWE Champion, on the other hand, faced current NJPW TV Champion Zack Sabre Jr. in a match that would prove who, indeed, between the two was the "Best Technical Superstar in the World."

Both men have never held singles gold during their time with All Elite Wrestling, and they indeed have the caliber to be great threats to Captain Charisma's title. But with an improved crew with Nick Wayne now by his side, the contender may be in for a great challenge.
Who do you think will come out on top between Strickland and Danielson? Let us know in the comments section below.

He believes readers deserve authentic and unique content and aims to report in a manner which pro wrestling fans can easily relate to.
Growing up, Enzo admired former world champions like AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, Bryan Danielson, Triple H, and Randy Orton for their finishing moves. As an adult, he started to appreciate their character work, as they juggled between heel and babyface gimmicks.
If allowed to produce one final storyline involving his idols, he would have Orton lock horns with John Cena, would be their one last big feud as both of them seem to be approaching the tail end of their careers.
Other than pro wrestling, Enzo enjoys keeping up with Basketball, Football, and Formula One. He also loves watching films, playing video games, and listening to music.
