#4 Christian Cage becomes the No. 1 contender for the AEW World Championship
With Hangman Page out of the title picture, the company declared AEW star Christian Cage as the No. 1 contender for the World Championship. Captain Charisma had a fantastic outing this week as he defeated The Blade in a singles bout and maintained his undefeated streak ever since arriving in AEW.
Given Cage's history with Kenny Omega, it would be relatively easier for the company to work on a readymade storyline rather than bringing in a new man. It will be a mouth-watering clash to see two of the most technically sound wrestlers on a collision course.
However, it is unlikely that Christian Cage will be the chosen one to dethrone The Cleaner. As exciting as this feud sounds, it feels more of a filler feud by the time Hangman Page and the newest acquisitions like CM Punk come in to grab that spot.
#3 Blockbuster Championship match announced for AEW Rampage
Dr. Britt Baker came across her new challenger this week in the form of Red Velvet. It didn't take long for AEW's Resident Dentist to accept the challenge as she made their bout official for the debut episode of Rampage.
The news was already exciting, but the company brought an extra layer of hype by unveiling its analyst team for the show.
The panel will include Mark Henry, Chris Jericho, Taz, and Excalibur. It would be a completely different vibe to see The World's Strongest Man on the commentary table. Meanwhile, we all know how brilliant the rest of the members are, especially Jericho, as he is considered one of the best promo guys in the wrestling business.
