3 favorites to win the 2024 Continental Classic

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of wrestling fandom under my belt, I must say, the 2024 Continental Classic draw has me thrilled to the core! The lineup is a dream come true for any fan, but three names in particular stand out as early frontrunners: Kyle Fletcher, Kazuchika Okada, and Will Ospreay.


The lineup for the 2024 Continental Classic has been revealed! The Blue League features Shelton Benjamin, Mark Briscoe, Kyle Fletcher, Daniel Garcia, The Beast Mortos, and Kazuchika Okada. In the Gold League, we have Darby Allin, Claudio Castagnoli, Brody King, Will Ospreay, Ricochet, and Juice Robinson. This incredible lineup has three contenders who are strong favorites to win it all!

Kyle Fletcher

Without a doubt, Kyle Fletcher is being set up as a key player for AEW’s future, as evident from his impressive victory over Will Ospreay at AEW Full Gear on November 23. Throughout most of their match, he maintained control and eventually pinned Ospreay to the mat for a clean win. While there was already a good deal of backing for Fletcher’s rise as a main event contender, this victory has further fueled those expectations. Winning the 2024 Continental Classic could significantly boost his chances, especially considering who else is in his tournament bracket. If AEW wants to solidify Fletcher’s role on their roster, having him emerge victorious from the Blue League and claim the entire tournament would be a significant step in that direction.

Kazuchika Okada

Is there anyone surpassing Kazuchika Okada in terms of professional wrestling tournaments? Not at the moment. Despite the scripted nature of the industry, his title as Continental Champion and four-time G1 Climax winner speaks volumes. It’s intriguing to witness Okada channel his peak form, a topic that has been debated following his stint in AEW, where some have criticized his comedic role within The Elite. However, prepare for those critics to be dumbfounded as he delivers exceptional matches against the contenders named in this tournament.

Will Ospreay

It’s clear that Will Ospreay is likely to emerge from the Gold League for another bout with Kyle Fletcher, despite Fletcher’s victory over the previous AEW International Champion. There’s definitely more to unfold between these two athletes. The Continental Classic could be the perfect stage for their narrative to climax, with both the tournament championship and their past encounter adding fuel to their rivalry. There’s still plenty of potential left in this matchup, making a final showdown between Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher a compelling prospect.
