AEW Full Gear 2024 Faces High Stakes

AEW's 2024 Full Gear pay-per-view is set to feature several high-stakes matches, including a potentially show-stealing grudge match between Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher. Despite a challenging year with declining ratings and injuries to major stars, ECW legend Tommy Dreamer believes AEW could generate significant buzz with Full Gear's promising lineup, including major matches like Orange Cassidy vs. Jon Moxley for the AEW World Championship. The Hurt Syndicate, led by MVP, is expected to gain traction, though Dreamer notes its impact on babyface Swerve Strickland, who is set to face Bobby Lashley. Dreamer also commented on Swerve Strickland's promo slip, suggesting it won't have a lasting negative impact due to contextual reasons. Concerns have been raised about the convoluted nature of the Death Riders storyline, with Dreamer questioning the alignment of characters and audience reactions. Overall, AEW Full Gear presents an opportunity to rejuvenate fan interest amidst recent criticism and challenges.
