The goal is still to become World Champion.
Dating back to the Worlds End pay-per-view, Eddie Kingston has been reigning as the AEW Continental Crown Champion. He’s in possession of the NJPW STRONG Openweight, ROH World and AEW Continental Titles.
Since becoming the Triple Crown Champion, Kingston has had several successful title defenses. Going into the 1/31 Dynamite, he promoted the show by guest appearing on FOX 8 WVUE-TV in New Orleans.
Kingston still has the goal in mind to become AEW World Champion. He feels that when that happens, he can say he’s the guy and he’s standing on his business.
When I become the world champion – and I say ‘the.’ I hate when people call it the AEW World Champion, ‘cause it means it’s just a world champion for that company. No. To me, for not just our company, but for wrestling in general, when you’re AEW World Champion, it’s the championship. So when I get that — and I’m putting it out in the universe so hopefully the universe gives back — then I’ll sit there and go, I’m that guy. I’m standing on my business now.
