Cause it's coming. That Page reaction at DoN, my gawd. The kid is OVAH.
All Out?
Does it not happen til Full Gear, and do AEW run the risk of losing Page's heat?
Who can you see Kenny defending against until then (besides Jungle Boy)? Christian, Darby, and a straight up one on one with OC seem quite likely.
Who does Page feud with until then? I'd like to see him and Dark Order mix it up with the Pinnacle now.
Personally, I'd like to see it happen at All Out. I know Kenny has a huge amount of potential challengers to keep him going til November but I think any longer and we might lose a bit of that Page overness. Also, if Page runs through the entire roster before getting to Kenny, he'll have no credible challengers if he takes the title off Omega.
All Out seems like the best time.

All Out is pretty much the right PPV.
It was the site of Page’s world title loss that started this spiral, the site of the 2020 MOTY contender against the partner he originally didn’t want and the guy he’d be facing for the title.
It’s perfect.

The sooner the better. I hate "holding pattern" title defences where we know the champ can't lose because they're obviously waiting for a later matchup.

All Out is a year since the split, so they can either set up the match there, or just do the match on that show.
Omega can defend against Jungle Boy, and maybe Christian, or Kazarian in between now and then. They're not exactly short on challengers lined up.
Page has been over for over a year now, I don't expect that to suddenly stop out of the blue, so there shouldn't be any rush to get there. AEW have proven they have the touch when it comes to adapting failing gimmicks into drawing acts (see Adam Page himself).

It’s perfect. And now the site of their first big PPV with full audiences outside of Florida. So, I say, just do it there.

I can easily see the challengers being Jungle Boy, Christian, Kazarian, Brian Cage, hell, give Darby another shot post Playoffs because the buzz that could get would be ratings magic. All stories you can build within or around other stuff going on.

Kenny's challengers until All Out:
- Jungle Boy (in two weeks) - Christian (Fyter Fest?) - Brian Cage(?) (Fight for the Fallen)

Hopefully they finally get it over with at All Out. Really should've just happened last night but no, I guess we had to have Kenny spend the time between PPVs meandering around half-feuding with Mox then rush him into something else entirely at the last minute for no real reason because two years of build just isn't enough.

This is less building the Omega-Page feud and more building Omega as this world beater and having Hangman's Hero journey for when they finally clash.

Everything since Revolution - really most everything since Kenny won the belt in the first place - has been filler. Page had been on a winning streak as it was and Kenny hasn't lost a singles match since Full Gear 2019, the work was already done.

I agree that the Mox -Omega feud felt very filler, but if you just have Kenny lose the title to Omega straight away ,it just wouldnt feel like as much of a big deal.IMO.And Hangman didnt fully recover from his confidence issues . Omega can put amazing matches and put eyes on people meanwhile, I think for example,the PAC/OC/Omega mini feud is the kind of stuff it needs,not the dragged out Mox/Elite Feud.

Hangman did lose to Brian Cage a few weeks back so him beating Cage was just tying up that loose end before being back on the path of fighting Omega.

It's gonna be All Out. If it's anything sooner or later than that I'd be stunned.

It can honestly happen now as i'm over Kenny as the Belt chaser but i'm guessing they want to have his downfall be told across multiple promotions
I have more problems with the ambition of Kenny as champ with other promotions that it takes away from AEW a bit

All Out I would guess. Page I feel is the guy that is going to take it from it. The story is there with the back history of former partners. Page is shown how massively over he is.

I'm guessing All Out. At the latest, Full Gear.

Honestly I half-expect Omega to win the eventual match with Hangman because after two solid years of this storyline going in circles at this point I almost actually expect it to never actually get to the point.

Dear Lord, Omega's champion antics for another 3 months? I do not know how many more Elite helping him escape with the title by the skin of his teeth moments I can take.
