Will both men confront each other this week?

In an unexpected turn of events, AEW star Christian Cage defeated Kenny Omega for the IMPACT World Championship at Rampage. The Best Bout Machine must be eyeing vengeance heading into their encounter at All out.

Fans will be eager to find out how the storyline between Cage and Omega unfolds moving forward. Don Callis will surely be looking to knock on the door of management this week to grant Kenny Omega another shot at regaining the IMPACT Wrestling World Title.

The company could build more hype into their match at All Out by making it a 'Winners take all match' next month. This week's episode of AEW Dynamite will be crucial for this feud.


#1 MJF meets Chris Jericho in a unique stipulation match on AEW Dynamite

After overcoming all four labors of Jericho, Chris Jericho will finally get the opportunity to face MJF this week. The match will not only be about retribution but also to prove who is the better man.

Jericho and MJF have been embroiled in an intense rivalry that saw some of the most hellacious matches between the Inner Circle and the Pinnacle.

MJF will be entering the bout as the favorite, given the damage Chris Jericho has taken throughout the Labors Of Jericho. The Demo god suffered the wrath of Nick Gage, Juventud Guerrera, Wardlow, and Shawn Spears in the past few weeks.

One may wonder why the company didn't book this massive rubber match at AEW All Out. Nevertheless, the promotion seems to have other plans for both these men moving forward.

There's no love lost between MJF and Chris Jericho, which is why both men will leave no stone unturned to put each other down for good. As far as the outcome goes, MJF could get the rub from Le Champion and emerge victorious to conclude this feud.

The Pinnacle Leader is believed to be one of the future stars of AEW, and a win over a bonafide legend like Chris Jericho will cement his position in the company as the top heel.
