3) Kenny Omega vs. Rey Fenix for the AEW World Championship (AEW Dynamite - New Year's Smash Night 1)
Trending
Kenny Omega defeated Jon Moxley to win the AEW World Championship on the Winter Is Coming special of AEW Dynamite on December 2nd, 2020. This triumph officially marked his heel turn because it kicked off his on-screen association with Don Callis. The Cleaner went on to make his first title defense the next month against Rey Fenix.
Omega and Fenix have faced each other twice before for Northeast Wrestling and AAA, but this bout was their first encounter in All Elite Wrestling. The two men had been scheduled to face off in the World Title Eliminator Tournament before Omega won the title. But Fenix was pulled from the bout after he was injured in his first-round contest against his brother, Penta El Zero Miedo.

Omega ultimately got the win with the One-Winged Angel to retain the AEW World Championship on AEW Dynamite - New Year's Smash.
