Tony Schiavone shares his thoughts on the AEW Continental Classic.
Since the AEW Continental Cassic debuted in 2023, it has delivered thrilling matches and buzzworthy matchups. The tournament is currently underway, and it has continued to spark plenty of excitement. The match between Will Ospreay and Darby Allin on the December 18 episode of AEW Dynamite has been buzzed about since it was announced. Meanwhile, some competitors, such as Kyle Fletcher, have had an impressive run in the early stages of the tournament.
Speaking on his What Happened When podcast, Tony Schiavone commented on the AEW Continental Classic.
“This has been really, really good. We have seen great matches. I think we have seen Kyle Fletcher come into his own during this tournament. Obviously, Will Ospreay has been great in this tournament as well. Claudio Castagnoli, and I know I’m gonna miss some running the list down, but Kazuchika Okada, we’ve got some great stars in this tournament. Unfortunately, Juice Robinson broke his foot the very first time out, so Komander had to replace him. But I’ve enjoyed the matches, I really have, and I’m saying that as a wrestling fan. I really have enjoyed those matches. Tonight, one match that is gonna be I think phenomenal is gonna be Will Ospreay and Darby Allin. It’s just great matchups," Schiavone said.
