If the choice is Cody, who would a good alternative be if not him for any reason?<\/li>\n<li>Is it a distinct possibility that Raw&#8217;s new TV deal would cut the length down to two hours and what are the pros and cons of that?<\/li>\n<li>Would AEW have been better off if the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega weren&#8217;t every part of AEW?

Is AEW looking more and more like a promotion doomed to fail?<\/li>\n<li>If Eddie Kingston or Swerve Strickland win the Continental Classic, does it elevate either of them?
