## Summary

Kyle Fletcher’s closing role in AEW’s Blood and Guts match marked a major step in his rise as a leading villain and main-event wrestler. The 27-year-old Australian now heads into the biggest match of his career, challenging Will Ospreay for the AEW World Championship at Full Gear.

Fletcher ended the double-cage match by forcing Adam Copeland to submit while threatening Ospreay with a screwdriver. He then ordered Wardlow to throw Darby Allin from the cage through stacked tables, before posing on the ramp as the event’s final image. Fletcher said the significance of the scene only struck him when he watched it back from the fans’ perspective.
