Current AEW champion walks out on Jon Moxley’s faction due to growing frustration

Tonight at AEW Collision: Grand Slam, a top star walked out on the rest of The Blackpool Combat Club members for the first time since they attacked Bryan Danielson. This would be Wheeler Yuta.

Wheeler's allegiances have been a major question over the past few weeks. It was unclear if he was willing to work with the BCC after they outed Danielson from the group at AEW All Out pay-per-view.

Yuta is also one-third of the AEW World Trios Champions, so he is obligated to appear for their title defenses. Tonight, they put their titles on the line against Private Party and Komander.

Yuta refused to move an inch during the match, so it was Claudio Castagnoli and PAC who did the heavy lifting. Isiah Kassidy then forced his hand and woke up an aggressive side of him as Wheeler made him submit with the Cattle Mutilation hold.

Following the win, Claudio and PAC walked up to him to celebrate, as they were happy with his unhinged side. Wheeler Yuta was not amused by this and walked out on the duo.

It is clear that Wheeler Yuta is still not on the same page as the rest of the BCC, and he has yet to choose a side. It remains to be seen when this gets resolved.
