In the AEW (All Elite Wrestling) Worlds End 2024 Continental Classic tournament, Kazuchika Okada emerged victorious, defeating Will Ospreay.
Renowned wrestling journalist, Dave Meltzer, on a recent episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, revealed insights about Tony Khan’s selection of Will Ospreay and Kazuchika Okada as the final contenders for the 2024 AEW Continental Classic.
The report indicated that Khan’s aim was to elevate the tournament’s status to a historical level.
Meltzer mentioned, “[Tony Khan] was insistent on creating the finest tournament. He aimed for it to be the top of all time, but let’s stick to being the finest in the U.S. It’s a more realistic objective and is certainly debatable. To accomplish that, the ultimate match needed to be Okada versus Ospreay. They certainly delivered. It ended up being the highlight of the night.”
