Paul Wight, known as The Big Show in WWE has been their star giant. After years of dedicated service to the company, his move to AEW was shocking, to say the least. Along with his move, Mark Henry’s move to AEW has gotten the same reaction. Paul Wight aka The Big Show [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210324200845/paul-wight-wwe.jpg]NEW DELHI, INDIA – FEBRUARY 13: American professional wrestler Big Show during an exclusive interview with Hindustan Times on February 13, 2014 in New Delhi, India. Big Show, whose real name is Paul Randall Wight, interacted with 10 lucky HT City readers, all of them over six-feet tall, who won the contest. He revealed the secret behind his popular wrestling move, choke slam, to one of the fans. Well, the choke slam was given to me in 1995 by Paul Michael Levesque (Triple H). That time, we were looking for something which was exciting, had a lot of agility involved, and at the same time looked powerful, he said. (Photo by Waseem Gashroo/Hindustan Times via Getty Images) PAUL WIGHT ADMITTED HE LIED Paul Wight did a recent audio interview with “Jim Varsallone [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hs6x4XnGKVE]“. In the conversation, Wight revealed how he and Mark Henry lied to each other about their respective roles in All Elite Wrestling. He said, “No, we both lied to each other. I lied to him [Mark Henry] before I went to AEW and then when he was coming to AEW, he lied to me about coming so, we both — the term in the business is called kayfabe and we’re old timers and we appreciate kayfabe and I mean, he did that years ago when he had on that pink salmon jacket and was gonna retire and dropped his boots at that stage and I was at home watching and I got all emotional and then he turned heel and got me all upset. If I had been there, I would have kicked his butt.” (H/t PostWrestling for transcriptions [https://www.postwrestling.com/2021/06/24/post-news-update-molly-holly-discusses-her-trial-run-as-a-wwe-producer/]) Both Henry and Wight left WWE citing creative differences and felt AEW [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/wrestling/aew/] was the way forward. The beloved giants deeply saddened their WWE fans by leaving their arena. However, the AEW fans will be thrilled at seeing Wight and Henry in their arenas.

Speaking on the champ, Kenny Omega [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kenny-omega/], he declared he knows they could tear the house down. Kenny Omega is that good.

<h2>AEW 2021: Latest News, AEW Rumors, Results</h2>
All Elite Wrestling has been phenomenal throughout 2020 and has proved itself time and time again. Perhaps the only main contender to WWE, AEW has routed NXT and has now crossed the 1 million viewership mark.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/7xaqmMyjmAsByHJpCrnlyMbRxjs=/1400x1050/filters:format(jpeg)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/19622967/EO7md32XUAApg5L.jpg" alt="I'm Embarrassed this Happens" data-noaft="1" />

Great content, excellent stipulations, and talented Superstars are what make AEW exciting. The different and raw vibe of wrestling in AEW makes it a very viable alternative to WWE wrestling.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h2>History</h2>
It’s hard to believe that the company is not even 2 years old, considering the fact that it has already beaten NXT viewership. AEW’s creation was announced on January 1, 2019, which turned a lot of eyes away from WWE.

The idea began when journalist Dave Meltzer posted on Twitter that ROH (Ring of Honor) had not managed to sell even 10,000 tickets for any wrestling show.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://gmsrp.cachefly.net/images/19/01/02/06fa27e58f9aa42ca3eb7ef0dfd176bd/960.jpg" alt="Two WWE legends are set to be involved in Cody Rhodes &amp; The Young Bucks' All Elite Wrestling | GiveMeSport" data-noaft="1" />

Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks (Nick Jackson and Matt Jackson), both responded by organizing a huge cross-promotion Wrestling event. Using their massive influence as the top stars of ROH, the three were able to gather a lot of Superstars.

The event, called All In, was a huge success. It registered the largest crowd attendance for a pay per view that wasn’t organized or affiliated to WWE. A whopping 11, 263 people attended All In, raising a lot of eyebrows.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/cody-young-bucks.jpg" alt="Cody Rhodes And The Young Bucks Mock WWE 24/7 Title | WrestlingWorld" data-noaft="1" />

Following this impact, Cody and the Young Bucks decided to pursue this new-found dream. It was announced on January 1, 2019, that All Elite Wrestling was going to enter the wrestling world.
<h3>Build-up</h3>
Billionaires Tony Khan and Shahid Khan backed this new promotion as the main investors. The Khans are also board members of the Jacksonville Jaguars and English football club Fulham FC.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://i2-prod.mylondon.news/incoming/article14051044.ece/ALTERNATES/s1200/GettyImages-879842246.jpg" alt="Tony Khan reaffirms commitment to Fulham role after being named president of All Elite Wrestling | Football-Addict" data-noaft="1" />

Cody and the Young Bucks joined AEW as co-executive vice presidents, a day after the promotion’s arrival was announced. Cody’s wife Brandi Rhodes was announced as the company’s Chief Branding Officer.

Following this, AEW also announced the signing of many other Superstars. The team SoCal Uncensored consisting of Christopher Daniels, Frankie Kazarian, and Scorpio Sky, “Hangman” Adam Page, Joey Janela, Dr. Britt Baker, and former WWE Superstars Chris Jericho and Pac.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://i1.wp.com/fullpresscoverage.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/KennyOmega.jpg?fit=1200%2C800&amp;ssl=1" alt="Why Kenny Omega made the right choice going to AEW - Full Press Coverage" data-noaft="1" />

Later, popular Wrestler Kenny Omega also joined the promotion as the fourth co-executive vice president of the company. He has proved to be quite an attraction and is regarded as one of the best in the business.

AEW also made the key decision of partnering with Oriental Wrestling Entertainment (OWE) and Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA), which gives them access to another pool of talents.
<h3>Current times</h3>
<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://s3.superluchas.com/2020/07/Orange-Cassidy-y-Chris-Jericho-AEW.jpg" alt="Chris Jericho Reacts to his Iconic Debate with Orange Cassidy on AEW - EssentiallySports" data-noaft="1" />

The first-ever pay per view, ‘AEW Double or Nothing,’ had tickets out on February 7, 2019. Since then, the way has only been up for AEW. Signing with TNT, AEW now has their shows aired on the same platform as WCW 20 years ago. AEW Dynamite has been a huge problem for NXT for the past few months as the AEW vs WWE war continues.

In fact, AEW ratings have risen during the pandemic period. The company is making good use of the pandemic situation to get an edge over WWE. The promotion has been letting in a number of fans to watch the event live, which has also helped its episodes.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://www.thesun.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Jon-Moxley-4.jpg" alt="Jon Moxley blasts the fan Who ran at him during AEW All Out Entrance - EssentiallySports" data-noaft="1" />

It is the only promotion that is actively competing with WWE and has already overtaken NXT to reach 1 million viewers. AEW will only keep climbing, and seek to do what WCW couldn’t- topple WWE.
<h2>What is AEW?</h2>
All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is an American Professional Wrestling Promotion founded in 2019. It’s President and CEO is Tony Khan. Shahid Khan, along with Tony Khan, is the lead investor in the promotion.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h2>How AEW is different from WWE?</h2>
Unlike WWE, AEW does not have PG restrictions. This means that it can show explicit content that involves bloody stunts such as thumbtacks.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://bleedingcool.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/AEW05224-1200x675.jpg" alt="AEW Dynamite 7/22/20 Part 1 - Now That's What I Call Extreme Rules" data-noaft="1" />

WWE stopped airing such content after it attained the PG license post the Attitude Era. The insanity of Mick Foley and other “violent” acts would no longer air. AEW provides fans with a distinct similarity to those days.

The promotion freely uses thumbtacks and has little restriction in its matches. The reality of the entire show attracts a lot of wrestling fans. Unfortunately, WWE NXT cannot match this.

AEW has also made great use of former WWE Superstars. The promotion recruits Superstars who were never used to their potential in WWE and makes them stars, showcasing the true talent that WWE threw away.
<h2>AEW Roster</h2>
AEW has a star-studded roster that can make wrestling fans go crazy over the possible storylines.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

AEW World Champion Kenny Omega defeated the unbeatable Jon Moxley to regain the title in a thrilling encounter.

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://cultaholic.com/files/images/Kenny%20Omega%20AEW%20Dynamite%20AAA.jpg" alt="" width="901" height="507" data-iml="35018" />

AEW TNT Champion Darby Allin is another big name for the promotion, notching a crucial win for his career over Cody Rhodes to win the gold.

AEW Women’s World Champion Hikaru Shida is a major talent in the women’s division and is arguably one of the best in the business. Her wrestling style has been critically acclaimed.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/TS1-EP0YQNVxdvfA7k9Aa-evIP0=/404x0:2047x1095/1310x873/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/67018596/EaHjZ4xXgAEi_r7.0.0.0.jpeg" alt="Wrestling's Best Women, #10: Hikaru Shida - Cageside Seats" data-noaft="1" />

The AEW Tag Team FTR have been hailed as the next Arn and Tully, and they are certainly living up to that potential. We are yet to see the best of them.

The constant stars of the show are Orange Cassidy and Chris Jericho who recently had one of the funniest feuds ever. It ended with Jericho falling in a vat filled with a mixture of orange juice and Champagne form a mimosa.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://img.bleacherreport.net/img/slides/photos/004/380/828/aa31261f94e2fffe857b2d948ba9fdf1_crop_exact.jpg?w=2975&amp;h=2048&amp;q=85" alt="AEW Revolution 2020 Results: Orange Cassidy Shines Brightest, More Hot Takes | Bleacher Report | Latest News, Videos and Highlights" data-noaft="1" />

Other prominent names in the AEW roster include Cody, “Hangman” Adam Page, Brain Cage, Miro, Kip Sabian, MJF, Matt Hardy, and Sammy Guevara.

The women’s division also has upcoming talents such as Abadon, Anna Jay, and Brandi Rhodes.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://em.wattpad.com/a966bc4df39068d42f7c1a85a2068355f8de60f7/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f47487274426d344d674a664861513d3d2d3137312e313630623932336531366633623462373636303233313938323135362e6a7067" alt="AEW Smash or Pass - Anna Jay - Wattpad" data-noaft="1" />

AEW also announced the signing of former WWE Superstars Miro (Rusev), Matt Cardona (Zack Ryder), and Matt Sydal (Evan Bourne), adding them to the already great roster.

<h2>Kenny Omega 2021: Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements</h2>
[caption id="attachment_519077" align="aligncenter" width="612"]<img class="wp-image-519077 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210118131852/kenny-omega-2.jpg" alt="Kenny Omega" width="612" height="407" /> TOKYO, JAPAN - OCTOBER 08: Kenny Omega vs Kota Ibushi vs Cody during the King of Pro-Wresting at Ryogoku Kokugikan on October 8, 2018 in Tokyo, Japan.

Very few wrestlers have risen to the top of the wrestling business faster than Kenny Omega. Tyson Smith wanted to an ice hockey goalie, but his uncle, the Golden Sheik, inspired him to pursue a career in professional wrestling.

Kenny Omega has competed all across the world. He was NJPW's biggest gaijin (foreign) superstar, and paved the way for the likes of Jay White, Cody Rhodes, and fellow North American talent to wrestle in NJPW. He also briefly wrestled for a small Japanese promotion called DDT, where he met his best friend and former tag partner Kota Ibushi.

[caption id="attachment_519078" align="aligncenter" width="612"]<img class="wp-image-519078 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210118131900/omega-vs-ibushi.jpg" alt="Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi" width="612" height="426" /> TOKYO, JAPAN - OCTOBER 08: Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi compete in the 3 Way match between Kenny Omega, Cody and Kota Ibushi during the King of Pro-Wresting at Ryogoku Kokugikan on October 8, 2018 in Tokyo, Japan. (Photo by Etsuo Hara/Getty Images)[/caption]

Omega was meant to be the biggest star in All Elite Wrestling, but his role as executive vice president and friendship with the Elite would've compromised his integrity. However, he recently defeated Jon Moxley for the AEW World Championship.
<h2>Kenny Omega Net Worth 2021</h2>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-310401 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200709135650/KennyOmega.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="800" />

The Best Bout Machine has a <a href="https://www.wealthypersons.com/kenny-omega-net-worth-2020-2021/">net worth</a> of $800,000 in 2021. This might seem like a tiny figure, but it is only going to increase in the future.
<h2>Kenny Omega Achievements</h2>

(Photo by Masashi Hara/Getty Images)[/caption]

The AEW Champion has won titles in every promotion he has competed in, from NJPW to even ROH. He is the current AEW World Champion, and a former Tag Team Champion with Adam Page.

In NJPW, Omega won the IWGP Heavyweight Championship from Kazuchika Okada in a seventy-minute war. He was also the inaugural IWGP United States Championship, a former IWGP Intercontinental Champion, Junior Heavyweight Champion, and Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion.

Omega won the G1 Climax in 2016, defeating Hirooki Goto in the finals. He reached the 2017 finals, but lost to Tetsuya Naito.

His matches with the likes of Okada, Kota Ibushi, Tomohiro Ishii and Tetsuya Naito have won many best match awards in their respective years.
<h2>Personal Life</h2>

Kenny Omega abstains from alcohol, drugs and tobacco. Omega is also an avid gamer and has been widely recognised as the biggest Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter fanatic in the world. Because of his former allegiance to NJPW, he got a Japanese citizenship, and is incredibly fluent in the language.

Omega is not in a relationship or has any children, His father worked for the Canadian transport authorities and his mother worked in family services.

(Photo by New Japan Pro-Wrestling/Getty Images) Very few wrestlers have risen to the top of the wrestling business faster than Kenny Omega. Tyson Smith wanted to an ice hockey goalie, but his uncle, the Golden Sheik, inspired him to pursue a career in professional wrestling. Kenny Omega has competed all across the world. He was NJPW&#8217;s biggest gaijin (foreign) superstar, and paved the way for the likes of Jay White, Cody Rhodes, and fellow North American talent to wrestle in NJPW. He also briefly wrestled for a small Japanese promotion called DDT, where he met his best friend and former tag partner Kota Ibushi.
