While AEW has featured some interesting developments every week, mind games have not made their way into feuds very often. With AEW Double or Nothing just days away now, some intriguing moves are being made by Tony Khan to grab the attention of fans ahead of the pay-per-view.
Among a stacked up card for the show, a TNT Championship match is scheduled to take place. Adam Copeland is set to defend his title against the leader of House of Black, Malakai Black, in a barbed wire steel cage match. Days before their battle for the title, Adam Copeland played mind games with Black on the 5/22 AEW Dynamite episode.
Malakai Black defeated Kyle O’Reilly in an action-packed match during the show. However, the lights went red while he was celebrating his victory. While everyone was confused, Copeland managed to give his opponent a blood bath, taking a place in his challenger’s head.
The Champion also warned Black to be careful for everything he wished for ahead of their match. After a surprising bloodbath for Malakai Black, the star now heads to Las Vegas to challenge the Rated R Superstar for the AEW TNT Championship.
