Serena Deeb might be the most underrated wrestler in AEW at the moment. She's unquestionably the best female wrestler in North America.

Serena Deeb's ability between the ropes is almost unparalleled. She can turn any hold or counter into a painful submission hold. Her wrestling is some of the most crisp and clean of any promotion. If there's one wrestling legend she resembles most, it's Dean Malenko.

It says a lot about Serena that despite her character being poorly defined by AEW, all her matches end up being must-sees. Deeb vs Riho and Deeb vs Allyson Kay were pre-show matches on pay-per-views, yet Deeb made them one of the best matches of the night.

Hopefully, AEW does a better job of utilizing Serena Deeb after she returns from injury.

#1. Kenny Omega in AEW

“He looks at wrestling differently than anybody else. With @KennyOmegamanX, there’s no previous evolution point. It’s just these completely new things that have entered his head that he’s daring to try.” -@WWEDanielBryan Lotta respect shown here.WATCH: https://t.co/KGNRwZZlEc pic.twitter.com/GmKZBUZLbQ

There wasn't much doubt, was there? Kenny Omega is one of the finest wrestlers to have ever stepped foot in a wrestling ring. His combination of speed, agility, athleticism and in-ring awareness make him a once-in-a-generation superstar.

Kenny Omega vs PAC on AEW Dynamite was arguably the greatest match seen in AEW Dynamite history. He has had classics throughout his AEW career but his best work was in Japan.

Kazuchika Okada vs Kenny Omega at Dominion in 2018 is widely regarded as the greatest pro-wrestling match of all time. The match went on for over 35 minutes and told a superb story. The technical prowess of both men was off the charts.

Kenny Omega vs. Kazuchika Okada NJPW - Dominion 6.9 - 6/9/18My take: Outta this world. A total rollercoaster of emotion. It won't tick every box for everyone but you will leave with the sense of watching something historical.That was everything. *****+ pic.twitter.com/tYQ9SPtaHJ

Kenny Omega calls himself the Best Bout Machine and the number of classics he's churned out over the past decade absolutely justifies the moniker.
