Here are 5 matches Tony Khan must book for AEW Grand Slam Australia 2025.
#4. Kyle Fletcher vs. Will Ospreay
Every time Kyle Fletcher and Will Ospreay have locked horns, they have created magic. All their matches are critically acclaimed and they both are priceless AEW assets. At Grand Slam Australia 2025, Tony Khan could take a safe bet and book a match between them. However, with an extreme twist.
The Australian native and the Aerial Assassin can battle in a steel cage or an extreme rules match. The former close friends are now fierce rivals and letting them loose in a hardcore setting would make for some must-see wrestling.
#3. Former AEW Champions MJF and Swerve Strickland could clash
MJF has just entered a storyline with Jeff Jarrett, he could wrap that up soon and begin a rivalry with Swerve Strickland. The two men are top guys in the company and have immense drawing power. Friedman is the longest reigning AEW World Champion in history while the former WWE star held the title last year.
Tony Khan must book MJF vs. Swerve Strickland at Grand Slam Australia. The Salt of the Earth is a natural heat magnet while The New Flavor is quite over as a babyface. Fans in the arena might be deafening during this bout.
#2. Toni Storm vs. Mariah May
Last year, "Timeless" Toni Storm lost the AEW Women's World Championship to Mariah May at All In. The New Zealand-Australian has reverted to her Rockstar character and it appears like she has lost her memory. This week on Dynamite, she had the opportunity to enter next week's Casino Gauntlet match by beating Willow Nightingale and Kris Statlander. However, she took the pinfall.
Tony Khan could pull off a masterclass by making "Timeless" Toni enter next week's gauntlet match and win it. May and Storm have a history and the duo can be a part of a compelling story of friendship, betrayal, and revenge. A strong buildup will result in a memorable Grand Slam match.
#1. Kenny Omega vs. Hangman Page
After a long hiatus, The Cleaner Kenny Omega is finally back in AEW. He is undoubtedly the face of the promotion and Tony Khan must book him in massive matches against top stars.
Hangman Page should face the former IWGP Heavyweight Champion at Grand Slam Australia. A straightforward but emotionally charged storyline between the two men could be executed in the next few weeks. Their match would certainly be a match-of-the-year contender.
