Austin Aries

One of the most decorated wrestlers of his generation, “The Greatest Man That Ever Lived” built his legacy as a three-time Impact World Champion and six-time X-Division Champion in TNA, where his first X-Division reign ran 301 days and spawned the historic “Option C” clause, which he used to trade the title for a TNA World Heavyweight Championship shot at Destination X — and win it. In ROH, he became the first two-time ROH World Champion, cementing himself among the indie era’s all-time greats with a blend of technical precision and high-flying brutality.

Aries is currently signed to Major League Wrestling as both a wrestler and color commentator and is the reigning MLW National Openweight Champion. He captured the title by defeating Blue Panther on MLW Fusion in Cicero, Illinois on February 7, 2026, and the championship bout marked his first MLW title in eight years. A rematch with Blue Panther is set for FUSION 200 on June 21, 2026, with Aries looking to prove his reign is just getting started.
