More on AEW Title Name Change (Patreon)

AEW changed the All-Atlantic Title to the International title, a move that has been in the works for quite some time.

Fightful Select was told that Warner Bros asked for something big in order to cross promote the Shazam: Fury of the Gods movie on AEW. Tony Khan had the idea of doing a "level up" of the championship to the International Title. Khan actually had the new championship belt made months ago to prepare specifically for this week and next week in order to promote the film.

We're told AEW is always excited to do the cross promotional work, and attempts to have newsworthy items in association with them. The company also wanted to put something newsworthy on the Winnipeg show and increase the prestige of a title they put on television often in prime positions.

Should've been the name all along imo

If it’s now the international title isn’t that just basically the AEW title again?

TheMightyKyle

Really missed the boat on calling it the Shazampionship.

I understand that they're stoked to change the title name however that cross promotion was just so weird

The way I'm thinking of it is that WBD or Shazam ended up sponsoring the match where the title name is changed. Probably could have been clearer if TK weren't the one announcing it.

"CHARLIE MURPHY!" - Tony Khan, probably

Wizard Of Smoke

Ok so I have defended Tony Kahn for when people says he is on cocaine... that was the most cocaine promo ever. He leveled up on the level ups.

Is that how you percieve the Intercontinental title? You can travel the worlds continents too.

I watch like every Dynamite and I couldn't tell you who had that belt because I can't recall one good storyline leading to a battle for it. It's Orange Cassidy, I'm assuming?

Damn that’s a shame. Any chance it’s like Cocaine Bear where if you go in knowing it‘s a shitty movie and still enjoy it?

It's been on two people and the only real storyline was when PAC was transitioning it to OC. It's quietly has become the workhorse title like the way WWE is using with the IC title. There is no good storyline for Gunther right now.

Gunther's developed storylines with Drew, Sheamus, and Strowman all within like the last six weeks on top of setting a Royal Rumble record and setting up a longer-term storyline with cody lol. There's just nothing interesting whatsoever about this AEW title at all. The opponents basically feel like they put everyone's name in a hat and drew randomly from it. No build up to the match, no promos, no brawls, nothing. They just throw them out there, Orange Cassidy wins, and then the feud is immediately over. Has Orange Cassidy done an in-ring promo in the last 12 months? Seriously, I could be forgetting one but I don't think he's done anything outside of backstage, pre-taped segments in as long as I can remember.

The whole level up thing was kind of weird as was the cross promoting of the belt to the movie, a bit of a stretch. Still like the name change tho.

"I watch Dynamite every week..." "I don't know who the All-Atlantic champ is..." "The challengers are chosen at random and Orange wins all the time..." So you DO know who the champ is! All three of those statements can't be true, which tells me you're grumbling for the sake of grumbling.
