Top 5 AEW breakout Stars of 2020

#2 Orange Cassidy (Defeated Chris Jericho at AEW All Out 2020)

Orange Cassidy and Chris Jericho in All Elite Wrestling

Since his AEW debut at Double or Nothing (2019), Orange Cassidy has become one of the most popular Superstars on the roster. His unique style of wrestling, along with his laid-back personality, has made him quite popular with AEW's fans.

At first, Cassidy rarely wrestled, but in 2020, he has stepped up his game. Once the pandemic hit, the company had to rely on a small group of Superstars, and "Freshly Squeezed" was one of them.

His consistent performances led him to a feud with the inaugural AEW World Champion, Chris Jericho. To everyone's surprise, Cassidy defeated Jericho at the company's flagship pay-per-view, AEW All Out (2020.)

After this rivalry, Cassidy challenged for the TNT Championship three times. He has remained a constant highlight of AEW Dynamite. While Cassidy has retained the mystique of his character, he has put on some incredible matches against AEW's top wrestlers.

The future looks quite bright for Cassidy heading into 2021.
