#4 Miro defends his AEW TNT Championship against Lee Johnson

In the Homecoming edition of AEW Dynamite, fans will finally see Miro in action as he defends his TNT Championship against Lee Johnson.

Miro has been on a roll ever since winning this prestigious title from Darby Allin. He then went on to have four successful title defenses against the likes of Lance Archer, Dante Martin, Evil Uno, and Brian Pillman Jr of the Varsity Blonds.

However, Miro currently lacks compelling and long-term storylines. There's no doubt that he elevated his character and promo stuff ever since he won the title. But he never got to face an opponent of his caliber that could potentially act as a threat to his title. A rising talent like Lee Johnson would be another exciting opponent for Miro, as far as the quality of the match concerns.

Despite that, we don't expect a title change, except if the company has planned to swerve all of us this Wednesday.


#3 Christian Cage faces The Blade on AEW Dynamite

A singles match featuring Christian Cage and The Blade will take on Dynamite this week. Last week, Captain Charisma teamed up with Jurassic Express to take on the Hardy Family Office. The babyface trio won the match, but Christian Cage took a brutal assault from The Blade.

It became clear that Matt Hardy was the mastermind behind this move. Hardy even claimed on social media that he is not finished with Christian Cage yet. It would be an interesting scenario, given that Matt Hardy has stated to put roadblocks in front of Christian Cage.

It remains to be seen if The Blade will hand Christian Cage his first singles defeat since joining the company.

Meanwhile, a win would help Christian Cage inch closer towards the AEW World title shot. With AEW star Matt Hardy determined to stay in his path, fans will be curious to see if Cage overcomes the odds or not.
