5 Bold predictions for the debut episode of AEW Rampage

#4. Christian Cage confronts Kenny Omega on AEW Rampage

Will this be the scene again?

With the AEW All Out pay-per-view on the horizon, Christian Cage and Kenny Omega could kickstart their rivalry with a face-off at Rampage. Last week, Tony Schiavone named Christian Cage the number one contender for the AEW World Championship. During a backstage interview, Christian Cage claimed that he was feeling "Elite."

The former WWE superstar will likely be coming with all guns blazing to confront Kenny Omega or even the Elite faction as a whole.

#ChristianCage is on his way to #AEWDynamite in Pittsburgh this Wednesday as the No. 1 contender to the #AEW World Title. That's got @Christian4Peeps feeling better than good, he's feeling ELITE!Watch #AEWDynamite EVERY WEDNESDAY at 8/7c on TNT. pic.twitter.com/VgkZXAWKs8

Both Omega and Cage have had several physical altercations, with the latter getting the upper hand most of the time. The Cleaner must be looking to seek revenge ahead of their possible match at All Out.

#3. AEW star Darby Allin lays out another challenge for the Chicago episode

What is Darby Allin planning for the Chicago event?

Former TNT Champion Darby Allin could show up this Friday to drop another bombshell regarding the potential arrival of CM Punk. Interestingly, the second week of Rampage is in Chicago.

Darby Allin caused a massive discussion among the wrestling world when he announced that he's ready to face anyone, even the best in the world.

I just had this idea. What if on Aug. 20th, inThe United Center, when Darby Allin is in the ring, Cult of Personality starts playing, but MJFcomes on stage to mock the crowd and fans, and then it plays again and then CM Punk comes out.

Fans in attendance erupted with CM Punk chants. If CM Punk has indeed signed with Tony Khan's promotion, management must continue to tease a possible confrontation between Darby Allin and CM Punk in Chicago. The hype seems real for this feud to culminate in a match at All Out.
