#2 Brandi wins the Casino Battle Royale
The Casino Battle Royale will be filled up with female participants this time and the winner will compete for the AEW Women's Championship. That winner will then face the winner of another match at All Out between Riho and Hikaru Shida.
The winner of the battle royale should come from the women actually signed to the company, but anything can happen. Women like Britt Baker, Allie, Nyla Rose, Awesome Kong and Sadie Gibbs are signed to the promotion and are in the match. Any of these women would be worthy of winning it.
Brandi will likely get help in the match from Kong because that has been the dynamic of their relationship that has been presented to us thus far in AEW. But if it leads to Rhodes winning, it would be a massive mistake. She has made some improvement in the ring but not to the point where she should be picking up wins over the likes of Bea Priestley, Baker, Rose or any of the other greatly-experienced women.
If she does win, it may provide an adversary for the winner of the match between Riho and Shida. Rhodes winning, however, would also reek of nepotism due to her spot in the company. The honor of competing in the bout for the inaugural Women's Championship should go to someone else.
