Kyle Fletcher wants Ilja Dragunov in AEW

Kyle Fletcher isn't hiding his wish to see Ilja Dragunov in AEW, calling the desire personal and selfish while admitting it would be awesome. The scenario feels plausible since Ilja is possibly a free agent, which matters given they already squared off in PROGRESS back in the UK. Fletcher points out that Ilja sits at the top of everyone's list at this moment, making the interest far from random. It goes deeper than just a roster move because he explicitly looks forward to seeing what a match between himself and Ilja Dragunov in 2026 actually looks like. He thinks that specific matchup would be very exciting for the fans.
