All Elite Wrestling has brought some of the best names in the business to the ring. From Dustin Runnels to Chris Jericho, here are a few of the wrestlers you should know.
Chris Jericho
Chris Jericho is a Canadian professional wrestler and musician who currently serves as the main star and creative advisor for All Elite Wrestling (AEW). He is also known as “The Ocho” or “The O-Man”. The 30-year-old began his career in the Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) promotion. Throughout his time in the company, he has won eight world championships.
He is one of the greatest stars of his generation. As a result, he was a major draw for World Championship Wrestling (WCW) during its ECW era. But he departed WWE in 2017 and now works in AEW.
Cody Rhodes
As one of the founding members of All Elite Wrestling, Cody Rhodes was a big part of its success. He is now an executive vice president and one of the superstars in the company.
For a while, it was thought that Cody would leave AEW for WWE. But it appears that he is staying. This would be an amazing story for both parties.
AEW is an exciting new company, and it is set to shake up the sports entertainment business. One of the things that makes the company stand out from its competition is that it has produced compelling content.
Billy Gunn
Billy Gunn has been a professional wrestling star for years, and now he’s a member of All Elite Wrestling. In fact, he’s one of the first performers to sign with the company in 2019. Here’s a quick look at Gunn’s career.
In the early 1990s, Gunn and Road Dogg made a name for themselves as a tag team in the WWF. The pair went on to win the tag team titles in early 1995.
Gunn went on to wrestle in TNA, and worked in a number of big wrestling promotions in North America. He was an enforcer type of wrestler. However, he eventually decided to take on a Rockabilly gimmick, and became a protege of The Honky Tonk Man.
Dustin Runnels
Dustin Runnels is a veteran professional wrestler. He is best known for his wrestling career in World Wrestling Entertainment. However, he also worked for many independent promotions.
Dustin Rhodes was born on April 11, 1969. His father is Virgil Riley Runnels Jr. and his mother is Terri Runnels. Before he came to WWE in 1995, he was a wrestler for World Championship Wrestling and All Japan Pro Wrestling.
After Rhodes joined the company, he teamed with brother Cody in a tag team named The Brotherhood. They won the tag team titles at age 44.
Toni Storm
Toni Storm is an All Elite Wrestling Women’s World Champion. She is also an interim women’s world champion. The New Zealand-born Australian professional wrestler debuted for AEW on the Dynamite episode on March 30.
Storm has been in the wrestling business for more than half of her life. She has competed in several different promotions in England, Australia and Japan. Her ring name is “Toni Storm” and she is also known as the Tiger Driver.
Before she joined AEW, she was an NXT UK Women’s champion. She won the title twice. In 2018, she won the second annual Mae Young Classic tournament.
Ruby Soho
If you have been following the All Elite Wrestling scene for the past couple of years, you have probably come across the name Ruby Soho. It’s not a new name; she has been around since the days of The Riott Squad in WWE, where she was known as Ruby Riott.
In the world of All Elite Wrestling, she has had a bumpy road. She has had a handful of matches, but her best was the Women’s Casino Battle Royale, a match that saw her outlast her opponents, including Nyla Rose, Thunder Rosa, and Emi Sakura.
AEW: Fight Forever
All Elite Wrestling has announced their first official video game. It is called AEW Fight Forever. The title is being developed by former WWE 2K developer Yuke’s.
There are a lot of features in the game. Basically, AEW: Fight Forever is a wrestling game with tons of customization options. Players will be able to customize their wrestler’s looks and entrances. They can also earn points by winning matches. These points will then be used to upgrade their wrestler’s stats.
