#4 Should: Christian Cage's redemption story would be complete with an AEW World Championship victory

AEW wrestler Christian Cage's road to an in-ring return is an incredibly inspiring story.

Christian Cage was forced to retire in 2014 after he suffered a serious concussion on an episode of Monday Night RAW. Due to the severity of the injury, Cage quietly retired without any send-off or much fanfare.

While many fans hoped Christian would eventually return, the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion ruled it out on many occasions. But after a seven-year absence, Christian returned to active competition earlier this year for WWE.

Christian Cage once again shocked the world when he signed with AEW in March. Since then, Christian has delivered several excellent matches on AEW television.

Should Christian Cage defeat Kenny Omega at All Out for the AEW World Championship, this victory would complete the future Hall of Famer's incredible comeback story, from his forced retirement to his triumph as the AEW World Champion.


#3 Shouldn't: Christian Cage can turn an AEW World Championship loss into a feud with Jungle Boy

Since signing with AEW, Christian Cage has seemingly formed an alliance with Jurrassic Express.

Specfically, Christian has become a mentor-like figure to rising AEW star Jungle Boy. Jungle Boy last eliminated Christian Cage in the Casino Battle Royale at Double or Nothing earlier this year, earning an AEW World Championship opportunity in the process.

With this outcome, Jungle Boy seemingly earned Christian Cage's respect.

That being said, there will always come a time when the student surpasses the teacher. This deveopment can often lead to the teacher feeling threatened by the student.

If Christian Cage loses to Kenny Omega at All Out, the IMPACT World Champion could potentially take out his frustrations on Jungle Boy. This directionn would lead to a fascinating feud between the two AEW stars.

A feud against an established veteran, such as Christian Cage, may be exactly what Jungle Boy needs to rise to the next level as a talent in AEW.
