On the July 6 episode of AEW Dynamite, Wardlow captured the AEW TNT Championship when he defeated Scorpio Sky in a street fight.
Wardlow didn't take a break after winning the title, successfully defending it the following week against Orange Cassidy.
Speaking to Telegram & Gazette, Wardlow revealed that he wants to bring back the open challenge, which Cody Rhodes utilized during his first run as AEW TNT Champion.
“That’s actually my number one priority. I want to bring back the open challenge,” he said. “I’m not sure if that’s what we’re going to do but I would definitely like to bring that back. Right now I have the original design, which I love, and I don’t have any plans to customize it. If they give me the opportunity, maybe I will, but I do love the original. Honestly, my only goal for the rest of this year is to successfully defend the TNT Championship and make sure that the title is the title in professional wrestling, so by the end of this year it’s the most talked about title in wrestling."
In the past, Sky and Miro showed off custom AEW TNT Titles to further highlight their personalities and uniqueness.
Wardlow's next AEW TNT Title defense has yet to be announced. Fightful will have live coverage of AEW Dynamite beginning at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
