While Triple H and Tony Khan may be in stiff competition, the creation of the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament in AEW has recently garnered appreciation from WWE legend AI Snow.
The Owen Hart Foundation cup was established in September 2021, with the first matches for the men's and women's divisions taking place in May.
After a series of single-elimination matches, Adam Cole and Britt Baker eventually went on to win the top prizes in their respective divisions at the Double or Nothing pay-per-view.
The Owen Hart Cup was established by AEW in collaboration with the Owen Hart Foundation in an effort to honor the legacy of the legendary wrestler.

Speaking about Tony Khan's decision to hold the tournament, WWE legend Al Snow praised the event during a Sportskeeda Wrestling interview.
"It's always wonderful to see Owen[Hart] recognised. Owen was such a great wrestler and great performer, and a great person. A good guy, a decent human being. And, you know, Owen was always funny, always ribbing." (0:24 - 0:41)
Al Snow is currently managing the day-to-day operations of Ohio Valley Wrestling, a promotion that he bought in 2018 and then sold off a majority interest of later in 2021.
