According to Wrestling Observer Radio, AEW is preparing to turn Jungle Boy into a heel for the first time.

Opinion: This has certainly been teased for a long time now and it would be awesome to see Jungle Boy getting a chance to show what he can do on the other side.

If nothing else, it gives him a good chance to officially get rid of the Jungle Boy name, which is long overdue.
