#3 AEW star Hangman Page returns as a heel to feud with the Dark Order
Hangman Page turning on the Dark Order will be one of the biggest swerves ever on AEW programming. Before taking a hiatus, Page broke his alliance with the fan-favorite faction.
The Cowboy held himself responsible for costing the Dark Order their opportunity at tag team titles. Throughout his entire AEW career, Hangman page has been dealing with self-esteem issues. But a heel turn could be a way to intensify his character and bring back confidence.

Page doesn't necessarily have to kickstart a full-blown rivalry with the Dark Order. It could be a stepping stone for him to climb to the top. Page could also dethrone Sammy Guevara to become the TNT Champion moving forward. There are endless booking options with this negative persona.
#2 Hangman Page joins The Elite
As the saying goes, if you can't beat them, join them. The equation perfectly applies to Hangman Page, considering his recent failures against Kenny Omega and The Elite.
Although fans may not like the move, Page could join forces with The Elite moving forward. It would be similar to when Randy Orton shook hands with Bray Wyatt only to rip him and his family apart leading up to their match at WrestleMania 33.
The company could have Hangman Page become a prominent part of The Elite, and when the time is right, he could turn on each of them, thus getting a rubber bout with Kenny Omega at the end.
It could be the perfect culmination of the long-running rivalry ending with Page dethroning Omega for the AEW World Championship.
