One big thing: PAC’s “Wembley Moment” was always in the cards
AEW’s All In event at Wembley Stadium saw PAC and the Blackpool Combat Club capture the World Trios Championship in a chaotic four-way ladder match. But the original plan was quite different.
• Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio reports that PAC was initially slated to win with Death Triangle partners Penta El Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix.
• The plan shifted due to Penta and Fenix’s likely move to WWE in the near future.
• Despite the change in teammates, AEW remained committed to giving PAC his moment at Wembley.
Why it matters
This backstage insight reveals AEW’s adaptability and commitment to its long-term storytelling, even in the face of unexpected roster changes.
PAC’s evolving role
• PAC seems to be unofficially joining the Blackpool Combat Club, according to Bryan Alvarez.
• This shift could signal a new direction for PAC’s character and storylines.
• His alignment with the BCC was further emphasized when he celebrated Bryan Danielson’s world title win in the All In main event.
Future implications
• PAC still has an outstanding challenge for the International Championship.
• With Will Ospreay reclaiming the title at All In, a PAC vs. Ospreay match could be on the horizon.
• This potential matchup could further cement PAC’s status as a top-tier competitor in AEW.
The bigger picture
PAC’s journey in AEW showcases the company’s commitment to its original roster members:
• He’s been with AEW since its founding in 2019.
• This marks his second reign as Trios Champion.
• His consistent presence and adaptability highlight AEW’s focus on long-term character development.
