This includes an annual tournament called The Owen Hart Cup, and Owen will be a playable character in the AEW game.

This is cool. Could Bret make another appearance for them to award the first winner of the tournament?

The winner of the Owen Cup getting a TNT or World Title shot would be a really nice touch. This is great and I'm honestly so happy to see Owen's legacy honored the right way. Makes me wonder if this may lure Bret away from his WWE Legends Deal, too.

On a related note, that AEW game's gonna have a stupidly-stacked roster by the time the darned thing gets out.

I hope for the family's sake they can get things patched up.

Anything that puts light back on Owen Hart is incredible.
This is fantastic news, and I look forward to encourage this initiative.
Owen 'King of Harts' Hart FOREVER

I’d be curious as to what an Owen Hart Cup tournament should consist of participant-wise. With AEW’s working relationships with other promotions, I keep picturing “US-based Super J Cup”.

I believe this is also the first video game to feature Owen since Showdown: Legends of Wrestling

We'll also be getting Owen Hart action figures as well.

Considering the homerun they hit handling Brodie's death and legacy, Makes perfect sense.
I love that all the good things are happening for the company.

One other thought. There's a world in which Kevin Steen could end up in the finals for The Owen? Very cool.

Good news! I'm glad Owen's name can finally be celebrated & respected within wrestling once again.

There’s a non-zero chance for sure, but my first preference would be for a newer rising star to get that first win in the Owen. This would be perfect for someone like a Dante Martin or a Daniel Garcia to win. And in terms of outside participants from other promotions, Josh Alexander from IMPACT should have a deep run in this thing.

Im pleased to see Owen get some attention, but he has nothing to do with AEW.
He obviously never worked there, never worked with anyone who is there, has absolutely no link to them in any way.
It's cool, but it's the wrong company in as far as being able to really go all out.
