"I'm not a transitional champion" - AEW star sends a bold message ahead of match with Wardlow
AEW star Scorpio Sky emphasized that he will not just be a transitional TNT Champion ahead of his encounter against Wardlow.
Wardlow won the "Face of the Revolution" ladder match at the Revolution pay-per-view to earn his TNT title shot. At the same time, Sky was granted a title match against Sammy Guevara due to his unbeaten streak since last year and proceeded to beat the Spanish God.
The former SCU (SoCal Uncensored) member reiterated that his title reign will continue, along with his unbeaten streak, even if he goes up against Wardlow.
He added that he will lead a transitional era and not just be a one-week title holder.
"I’m not a transitional champion; I’m the catalyst to a transitional era. The TNT champion, the true Face of the Revolution. Wednesday night will not be a moment for him, but day 371 for me," Sky tweeted.
