#2 Jade Cargill becomes first-ever AEW TBS Women's Champion

Jade Cargill and Ruby Soho will collide this week to determine the first-ever AEW TBS Women's Champion. Both women have displayed tremendous resiliency throughout the tournament.

As heartwarming as it would be to see fan-favorite Ruby Soho capture the title, the company could put the TBS Championship around Jade Cargill's waist.

Cargill is undefeated in the women's division, and the company seems laser-focused on propelling her into one of the top female wrestlers in the division. Cargill has more to lose than Soho from this match.

The latter has already gained prominence during her time in WWE, and she would be more suited to go after Dr. Britt Baker's title down the road. Meanwhile, it would be unwise to end Cargill's undefeated streak this early.

On a positive note, having Jade Cargill hold the TBS title would silence all recent critics aimed at AEW over 'diversity' issues.


#1 Bryan Danielson ends the fairytale run of Hangman Page by capturing AEW World Championship

Bryan Danielson dethroning Hangman Page for the AEW World Championship could make fans fume with rage, but it would lure more eyeballs to their product.

It's a sad reality that The Anxious Millennial Cowboy isn't as big a draw for the company yet. While he has all the potential to be a top guy, his resume is incomparable against someone like Danielson.

The former WWE Superstar has been doing some of the best character and in-ring work of his career since arriving at AEW. As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot. The company may not want to drop the ball on Danielson, who can move the needle for the promotion.

Fans are also more intrigued when a babyface is chasing the title and not the other way around. WWE made headlines over the weekend by putting the world title around Brock Lesnar's waist. AEW could pull off a similar swerve by having a title change this Wednesday night.

Regardless of how Bryan vs. Page pans out, wrestling fans will be in for a treat to watch another stellar contest between the two men.
