The All Elite Wrestling (AEW) world is abuzz with anticipation as Christian Cage prepares to challenge Swerve Strickland for the AEW World Title at Double or Nothing this Sunday. According to wrestling legend Bully Ray, Christian Cage has what it takes to dethrone the current champion. However, the WWE Hall of Famer doubts that the company would be willing to pull the trigger on a title change.
Speaking on Busted Open, Bully Ray (formerly known as Bubba Ray Dudley) expressed his confidence in Christian Cage’s abilities, stating that he wouldn’t hate the idea of the WWE legend defeating Swerve Strickland for the AEW World Championship. This endorsement from a wrestling veteran of Bully Ray’s stature is significant, given Christian’s impressive track record in the WWE and his current momentum in AEW.
Despite this, Bully Ray remains skeptical about the company’s intentions, suggesting that they may not be willing to hand the title over to Christian just yet. This could be due to Swerve Strickland’s recent victory and the desire to give him a longer reign as champion.
In a separate remark, Bully Ray also highlighted the lack of focus on Swerve Strickland since his title win, stating that the new champion hasn’t received the spotlight he deserves. This lack of attention could be a concern for Swerve heading into his first major title defense, especially against a seasoned competitor like Christian Cage.
As the highly anticipated match approaches, fans are left wondering what’s in store for the AEW World Title. Will Christian Cage defy expectations and emerge victorious, or will Swerve Strickland successfully retain his title? One thing is certain – the outcome of this match will have significant implications for the AEW terrain.
