#4. Kenny Omega vs. PAC (AEW 2019-2020)

Kenny Omega signed with AEW in February 2019 with major hype behind him. After suffering a loss to Chris Jericho in the Double Or Nothing 2019 main event, he kickstarted a feud with Jon Moxley after The Purveyor of Violence laid him out, but their first match at All Out 2019 was postponed following a Moxley injury. His replacement was PAC.

The Bastard defeated The Cleaner in a tremendous, back and forth clash. Both men wanted to prove themselves as the better wrestler, so this set the stage for a rematch. On Thanksgiving Eve's 2019 episode of Dynamite, Omega gained a measure of revenge with a win in a fantastic bout.

To finally settle their differences, All Elite Wrestling announced a 30-minute Iron Man Match between the rivals on the February 26th, 2020 episode of Dynamite. Fans witnessed an absolute classic with the two performers putting on a clinic that saw Omega beat PAC in overtime to win.


#3. Cody Rhodes vs. Darby Allin (AEW 2020)

Darby Allin debuted for AEW at Fyter Fest 2019 in a 20-minute time limit draw against Cody Rhodes. This one night showed that Allin would become a star for All Elite Wrestling. As the calendar turned to 2020, he wanted to finally get a victory over Rhodes.

The American Nightmare defeated him thanks to help from his new coach Arn Anderson. They would have a rematch a few months later in the TNT Championship Tournament. This time, Cody Rhodes reversed the Coffin Drop into a pinning combination to move on to the finals of the tournament.

The final match of their 2020 trilogy came at Full Gear 2020 where Allin finally defeated Rhodes to win the TNT Championship.
