All Elite Wrestling's biggest show to date, All Out is just weeks away, and with a battle royale added to the card yet again, it's got us very excited about the names that may pop up.
With all the amazing female talent that is around in the wrestling world today, this one could be one of the most exciting matches on the show, but like the Casino Battle Royale at Double or Nothing, there's only a handful of performers that are capable of winning.
The bout to crown the first-ever AEW Women's World Champion will take place on the first AEW show on TNT in Washington D.C, and while there are a few names we can expect to be in the fold, AEW may throw some surprises our way.
So without further ado, sit back and read along as we look to August 31st with AEW's All Out, and give you the 5 best options for the winner of the Casino Battle Royale and a shot at the AEW Women's World Champion.
#5 Sadie Gibbs
Sadie Gibbs is the only performer on this list who hasn't yet appeared in All Elite Wrestling, but given all of the tools she has at her disposal, it makes sense to think about her in this spot.
While Gibbs doesn't have the size or strength of someone like Awesome Kong, she is an impressive athlete in her own right, and with the combination of size, strength, and athleticism, she's exactly who a wrestling company would want as the face of a division.
The British standout is still quite young in her wrestling career, but she's already impressed everyone that has seen her work, and even if she doesn't get the win here, she has quite a promising future ahead of her.
This is the most unlikely of the performers on our list, but AEW have already shown that they want to shake things up and surprise their fans, and this would be quite a pleasant one.
#4 Kylie Rae
Kylie Rae was one of the first female signings to All Elite Wrestling, and while she isn't your prototypical wrestling champion, the fans have gotten behind 'Smiley' Kylie like few others in the division.
We haven't seen her in AEW for quite some time now, but given her talent and her overwhelming, radiant positivity, it's hard to imagine that she isn't being considered for this spot.
After Hangman Page won the first-ever Casino Battle Royale back at Double or Nothing, they may not want to go for another babyface win, but Rae is incredible at playing the underdog, and that will serve her well going forward.
It may be too early to put the Championship on Kylie, but having her go from beginning to end in the Battle Royale could be a signature moment early on in AEW's life, and it's something we wouldn't be shocked to see.
#3 Awesome Kong
AEW promised us surprises when they began at Double or Nothing and on their first night, they certainly delivered, bringing in a wrestling legend in former TNA Knockout's Champion, Awesome Kong.
While Kong coming into AEW could be dangerous enough already, she has aligned herself with Chief Branding Officer Brandi Rhodes, and given this combination, it's hard to see her being stopped anytime soon.
We saw a big-time staredown between her and Aja Kong at Fight for the Fallen, and whether that manifests itself in the Battle Royale or a singles contest, it's going to be big for the women's division going forward.
Traditionally, bigger performers have always dominated battle royale's, but rarely come out on top. But, with the combination of her size, skill, experience, and partnership with Rhodes, it's hard to see anyone being more of a favorite to win the first-ever AEW Women's World Championship.
#2 Britt Baker
Ever since the announcement of AEW, it's been clear that Britt Baker is the face of this women's division, and while it would be a predictable result, Dr. Britt has to be considered a favorite for this spot.
While her wrestling may not be at the level of some elite performers in other companies, Baker has the talent and the looks to be considered a top star going forward, and they may need to completely get behind her here.
Like Hangman Page, she's got all the ability, but right now, she just doesn't click as the first champion, and a setback here to make her chase the title makes a lot more sense.
When AEW gets to TNT, we'll be seeing more character development and insights into each character, so the fans may get behind her more at that stage, but right now, she's just a level below our next performer, who should come out on top at All Out.
#1 Bea Priestley
When AEW first announced the signing of Bea Priestley, not many people knew her name outside of the hardcore fans, but after her brief appearance at Fight for the Fallen, that has certainly changed.
After all the time Bea has spent in Japan climbing through the ranks in Stardom, she's become one of the best female wrestlers in the entire world, and her talent even has wrestling legends salivating.
Following her performance at Fight for the Fallen, Dustin Rhodes tweeted about his desire to work with Priestley due to her potential, and it's safe to say that she's a step above everyone in the AEW women's division right now.
After what happened with Britt Baker (although accidental) at FFTF, that's definitely a possibility for AEW on TNT week 1, but given how well-rounded and unique Priestley is, right now, she should be the #1 favorite to win the first-ever Championship in the AEW's women's division.
