Imagine an arrogant and cocky Adam Cole, living his best life with his Elite friends, picking a fight or getting the attention of a reckless and dangerous Jon Moxley. It’s a rivalry we have never seen before, and I think it would be really entertaining. Adam Cole is a pretty boy who has proven he can get down and dirty when he needs to. Cole has a history of street fights, war games and extreme rules matches, so seeing him fight Moxley in a Lights Out match would be incredible. They can both tell a story through their promos and the clash between their contrasting personalities would be a fun one. They just seem like two characters who wouldn’t get along.

I feel like the story with Hangman Adam Page is already written on the wall. From the inception of All Elite Wrestling, we have seen the cowboy slowly drift away from his buddies in The Elite. It has been one of the best long term stories from the company. Page has drifted from Kenny Omega, the Young Bucks and the rest of their Elite clan. It didn’t seem to be much of an issue until Hangman was seemingly heading towards a World Title shot against Omega. Now with the addition of Adam Cole, it seems like there could be one more obstacle for Adam Page to get to that title shot. I think we could get a really good match between the two as well.

In the All Out post show media scrum, Adam Cole named Jungle Boy at the top of his list of people he would love to work with in All Elite Wrestling. Adam Cole played up Jungle Boy’s potential and even referred to him as the future of the company. As of right now, it seems that The Elite’s biggest enemies are Bryan Danielson, Christian, Kazarian and Jurassic Express, which includes Jungle Boy. Therefore I see this match taking place in the near future, but a longer rivalry between these two could really do wonders for Jungle Boy. Adam Cole is a reputable name with a ton of accolades and Jungle Boy picking up a win over him in a longer rivalry would be huge.

Kenny Omega has his concerns about Adam Cole, even though they are old friends. They already teased on the “Being the Elite” YouTube series, when Omega accidentally expressed his insecurities of Cole being more over than him. These little skits that are intended to be for humor can sometimes become seeds planted for future feuds. Adam Cole outshining Kenny Omega leading to The Elite imploding is classic professional wrestling. When there are too many egos in one faction, it’s usually inevitable that they will eventually clash. It’s like when Randy Savage and Hollywood Hogan started feuding over the pecking order within the New World Order. The thing that would make this different is that Omega and Cole are both in their prime. Imagine the banger’s we could get between the Best Bout Machine and ADAM COLE BAY BAY!

Two of my favorite matches in All Elite Wrestling’s history are the matches PAC had against Kenny Omega. It already seems as if we will be getting Bryan Danielson against Kenny Omega soon, which led me to think about how awesome it would be to see Bryan Danielson face off against PAC. To my knowledge, the two of them never crossed paths in the WWE, but had wrestled years ago in Ring of Honor. The idea of them both being seasoned veterans now and facing off again gets me excited. The common trend with the Danielson dream matches is that Daniel Bryan wants to wrestle, and this would be a  great wrestling match. Imagine the promos PAC would cut about slaying the American Dragon. I’m here for it.

When you think of Darby Allin, you might just think about his high risk antics. However, after seeing his matches against the likes of Cody Rhodes and CM Punk, we have been able to see Darby Allin holding his own at a different pace. If Allin’s match with CM Punk was really good, could you imagine a match with Bryan Danielson? The biggest difference between CM Punk and Bryan Danielson is that Punk shared his excitement to work with the younger talent in a more positive way, whereas Bryan made it clear he wanted to kick their heads in. The idea of Danielson beating the crap out of Darby while he won’t stay down—thus proving his toughness and showcasing his heart to gain Bryan’s respect—is something I can get behind.

Pentagon Jr versus Bryan Danielson is just one of those matches that I would love to see personally. This would be a clash of styles, but the stories they could tell in the ring would be amazing. I am a fan of the Lucha Brothers as a tag team, but I always found Pentagon as a singles star really appealing. The feud he had recently against Cody Rhodes got me really excited, but it was just a short transitional feud. It made me want more singles matches from Pentagon with Alex Abrahantes as his manager feuding with top stars on the AEW roster. The two have never wrestled each other, but if Pentagon targeted Bryan to make himself a top contender in the singles division, I think we would be in for a treat.

Brian Cage is one of those people in All Elite Wrestling that I believe gets overlooked and under-appreciated. He is an agile big man who can do some incredible things a guy his size shouldn’t be able to do. Lastly, Brian Cage is also a monster of a man, which means this would be a situation where Danielson would be trying to overcome the odds. I could definitely see Cage coming after Bryan Danielson to make an impact and be taken seriously. Also, they could play off of Bryan Danielson’s well documented health background, which forced him to retire in the past to make the feud more personal. If there was ever a feud The Machine needed, it would be the one against The American Dragon.

Sting and CM Punk are both in my personal top ten favorite wrestlers of all-time. I enjoyed it every time they crossed paths during the build up for the Punk and Darby match at All Out. They spoke very highly of each other in promos and private conversations they had that Punk had shared with us while doing media. Punk even said it would be a wrestling bucket list item for him to wrestle the Stinger. Sting has wrestled a couple of times already in AEW; they were solid showings, but he has yet to have a singles match in the company. Although a lot of us think that the first singles match will eventually be against Cody Rhodes or Darby Allin, I would not be disappointed if it was against CM Punk. As odd as it seems, CM Punk is a veteran in his own right and is from the old school world of wrestling. That being said, I think Punk could work at a smart pace and style that would accommodate Sting while still telling us a great story. It would be awesome.

I get thrilled at the idea of CM Punk and MJF shooting back and forth on the microphone. Those promos would be all time classics. There is no one more disrespectful and arrogant than MJF. If there is anyone who is going to bring an end to Punk being happy to be back and ready to fight everyone, it would be Maxwell Jacob Friedman. It’s a rivalry that would get personal real fast and bring out a more irritated Punk looking for revenge. It would also be believable that MJF would find a way to beat CM Punk as he has victories over the likes of Cody Rhodes and Chris Jericho. I believe that their match could be the best wrestling match on any card that it is on. I really need this rivalry in my life.

If Malakai Black set his focus on CM Punk, it would have me hooked. They both have similar aesthetics when it comes to tattoos and size. They also both love throwing kicks and wrestle with a more unorthodox style that incorporates some mixed martial arts. The promos between these two would be awesome too. I can imagine Malakai having a really good reason for targeting Punk, such as attacking his values, morals and beliefs—trying to make CM Punk out as a fraud. The mind games would be fun and I think I would really enjoy their matches against one another. The Dark Father versus the Straight Edge Savior is the feud Malakai needs after he’s done with the Rhodes family. Please give me what I want, All Elite Wrestling.

I think for a while now I thought Chris Jericho would be the one who would eventually give Sammy Guevara the rivalry that would validate Sammy as a star for the future. Nonetheless, Chris Jericho has already had these sorts of rivalries with Orange Cassidy, Hangman Page and—most recently—MJF. I don’t think I really want to see Sammy and Jericho break up. However, if Punk was to either call out Guevara or vice versa, it would be the biggest rivalry for Sammy to date. CM Punk is known as the Best in the World, but Sammy wants to prove that he can beat him. This would really be a defining feud for Sammy Guevara and I really hope he gets it. CM Punk is really good at putting over his opponent while building up a match, so I think regardless of the winner, Guevara would be popular by the end of the feud. Lastly, I don’t think Punk would make it easy for the Spanish God and I want to see it.
