Miro Is NOT Happy With Being Left Out Of AEW’s #1 Contenders Tournament

He probably should be mad. Every now and then, you find a wrestler who gets your attention with the right character. Something has changed and all of a sudden, the character who has always shown potential is suddenly acting on that potential and everything is clicking. That is the case in AEW, but said wrestler is not exactly thrilled with how things are going.

This week’s edition of AEW Dynamite concluded with the announcement of the World Title Eliminator Tournament. There were eight wrestlers included in the field, with the tournament starting next week. Former TNT Champion Miro was not included though, and complained about it on Twitter, asking if AEW was mocking them because he should be champion. Miro has not wrestled since losing the TNT Title on September 29.

Opinion: The tournament is a little strange as there are some interesting names in there while there are also some names missing. I’m not sure how much drama there is going to be in the tournament, but it is kind of hard to ignore how many top AEW stars are missing. Miro is certainly a major force in AEW and it is a little strange to see him not included in something like this.

Should Miro have been in the tournament? Will he ever be AEW World Champion? Let us know in the comments below.
