AEW just tweeted this awesome news
“ This collaboration includes launching the annual Owen Hart Cup Tournament within AEW, which will see the winner receive a Cup known as “The Owen,” as well as the production and distribution of unique and original Owen Hart merchandise, including specified retail goods as well as the upcoming AEW console video game. This alliance incorporates opportunities to develop Owen Hart action figures via AEW’s partnership with Jazwares, apparel, posters, and additional collectable merchandise. Owen Hart is survived by his wife, Dr. Martha Hart, who spearheads The Owen Hart Foundation with a mission of providing global aid to at-risk communities (e.g., scholarships, housing, various forms international assistance, food drives, backpack giveaways and Christmas projects).”

That is amazing. I am so happy for AEW being the promotion that gets their partnership and I am happy for the family to be able to get Owen's name back out there with a quality promotion. More than that, from what I've seen and read on the Foundation website they do some really great things for people in need in Canada.

WWE has become a corporate Disney type entity, they have lost all real soul and character, while AEW is embracing wrestling and its storied history. AEW is definitely the top professional wrestling organization, even if they don’t touch the numbers that the sports entertainment company is doing.

I guess they are ruling out lowering the Owen Cup from the ceiling.
Super cool news. Sounds like some wicked tributes AEW will be rolling out. Honoring the wrestling legacy and the man himself, that the family can choose to be a part of. And I'd wish it would end of the nonsense of the Martha hate, though I know it won't be.

AEW is literally ushering in a Renaissance period where wrestling is cool again and it’s thanks in huge part to the kind of leader Tony Khan is. CM Punk returns because of the Brodie tribute, now this…..wow
