AEW's main events have delivered more often than not, and this week's clash between Lance Archer and Rey Fenix was no exception.

The two wrestled each other to earn a spot in the Face of the Revolution Ladder match at the upcoming pay-per-view. The winner of the said ladder match will get a future AEW TNT Championship match.

Archer and Fenix fought for the spot as if they were in a title match on AEW Dynamite. Fenix's aerial offense mixed well with Archer's hard-hitting move-set.

Fenix was the underdog in this match, so it made sense when Archer dominated the high-flyer towards the end of their contest. Archer picked up the victory and earned his place in the ladder match at Revolution.

After the bout, the two also shared a fist bump to end the episode on a feel-good note.

That was one hell of a show 🙌 #AEWDynamite pic.twitter.com/afqUN3ZJp1

Archer was the right man to win in the aforementioned scenario. Although Fenix would definitely be a great ladder match contestant, Archer fits more efficiently in the current TNT title picture than the luchador.
