#4 Will Malakai Black be booked better than his WWE run?

When former WWE Superstar Aleister Black showed up in AEW, the world was stunned! He immediately rose right to the very top, mixing it up with the man who's the face of the company, Cody Rhodes.

It's only a matter of time before Malakai Black captures either the AEW World Championship or the TNT Championship. One has to wonder if he'll become the modern-day equivalent of The Undertaker under Tony Khan's supervision.


#3 Will AEW Superstar Paul Wight prove he's still got it?

The Big Show showed, in the twilight of his WWE career, that he could have supremely competitive and entertaining matches. His feud with Braun Strowman was arguably one of the best of his career.

As good as he is behind the commentary desk, one has to imagine that Paul Wight is itching to get into an AEW ring.

Even if the former WWE Superstar does not become the AEW World Champion or indeed, the AEW TNT Champion, he could certainly win the Tag Team Championship! Maybe alongside his old friend, Mark Henry! Imagine Wight and Henry against The Young Bucks...
