AEW competitor Konosuke Takeshita shared his thoughts ahead of his semifinal match against Kazuchika Okada in the Continental Classic Tournament. Takeshita, who topped the Blue League in the tournament, is set to face Okada, the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion and Continental/Unified Champion, at the World’s End event on December 27th. AEW released a video featuring Takeshita confidently declaring, “I’m going to the final of the Continental Classic. From Alpha.” The victor of this match will go on to compete against either Jon Moxley or Kyle Fletcher in the tournament finals later that night.
Last year’s tournament winner was Kazuchika Okada, who defeated Will Ospreay at World’s End 2024. The inaugural 2023 tournament concluded with Eddie Kingston beating Jon Moxley to become the first Continental Champion. The 2025 World’s End event will be held on December 27th at Now Arena in Chicago, Illinois. For ongoing AEW news and updates, fans can follow dedicated coverage and discussions.
Fan Take: This showdown between Takeshita and Okada is a thrilling moment for AEW fans, as it showcases top-tier talent from global wrestling circuits clashing in high-stakes matches. The outcome could reshape the tournament landscape and elevate the Continental Classic’s prestige within the wrestling world.
