Top Full Gear Matches to Watch

Will Ospreay vs. Kyle Fletcher

Regarded by many as two of the top in-ring performers in wrestling today, Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher will meet at Full Gear with the AEW World Championship hanging in the balance.

Ospreay and Fletcher have wrestled each other many times before, but the stakes were never this high on the previous occasions.

That suggests both stars will put their best foot forward and be fully committed to delivering a match that fans will remember for a long time to come.

Ospreay has not been shy about meeting challenges head on since winning the AEW world title at All In, while Fletcher has been a star on the rise for quite some time.

The next major step for Fletcher to take is to become a world champion, and while it is fair to wonder if that will be in the cards for him at Full Gear, all signs point toward him winning the big one eventually.

Kazuchika Okada vs. Adam Copeland

Adam Copeland announced that 2027 will be his final year as an active wrestler, and he is getting a head start on some of the numerous dream matches fans would love to see him have before he steps away for good.

One of them will come to fruition at Full Gear when Cope challenges Kazuchika Okada for the International Championship.

Over the past few weeks, Copeland and Okada have mixed it up on a couple of occasions, but never in a singles match.

Okada got a pinfall on Copeland during the Clockwork Carnage match at WrestleDream, and Okada's team later beat Copeland's team in Blood & Guts.

As a result, Copeland will be out for revenge, and if he comes out on top, he will win his third different championship since joining AEW.

Tommaso Ciampa vs. Ilja Dragunov

For the first time since making his AEW debut last month at WrestleDream, Ilja Dragunov will compete in an AEW pay-per-view match at Full Gear.

The contest will have significant stakes attached to it as well with Dragunov challenging Tommaso Ciampa for the National Championship he just won from Andrade El Idolo.

Ciampa and Dragunov are two of the hardest-hitting and most-believable wrestlers in the game today, so they figure to deliver a high level of physicality on Saturday.

Helping the cause is the fact that Ciampa and Dragunov are already familiar with each other, having faced off in WWE previously.

With some chemistry already present for them to build upon, the groundwork is laid for Ciampa and Dragunov to have a bout that challenges for match of the night honors.
