#1 Brian Cage is no longer in prominence in AEW
Brian Cage made his debut as a surprise entrant in the Casino Ladder Match at AEW Double or Nothing. Cage won this debut match, establishing himself as a serious contender and earning him the right to challenge for the AEW World Championship.
Taz's mentoring shaped Brain Cage's AEW run very well, which led to him being considered a serious threat to Jon Moxley's championship title. However, the addition of younger stars like Ricky Starks and Powerhouse Hobbs to Team Taz led to the Machine taking a backseat. His bookings were also drastically reduced.
The underuse of Brian Cage was also alluded to in a tweet by his wife, who pointed out her husband's current role in AEW. the tweet was further clarified on by Brian Cage.
Whatever may be the case, there is a plausible chance that Brian Cage might not be invested in by AEW in 2022. A release may be on the horizon for the Machine.
