#4 Lance Archer has been a dominant force in AEW

Lance Archer is probably one of the fiercest wrestlers on AEW's roster at the moment. Alongside Jake Roberts, Archer does not have a weakness at this point. Roberts speaks on the mic for him, while Archer does the wrestling.

Since coming to AEW, Archer has been strongly booked. Although he lost his first feud, he has more than made up for it with his recent appearances.

So far, Archer has not had the defining feud that will make him the top star in the company, but he has come close. Impressive with his in-ring athleticism despite his height and size, Archer could become the top name in the near future.

What many people do not know is that before Archer went to NJPW and AEW, he was in WWE in 2009. He was part of WWE's ECW in 2009 before going to FCW when ECW wrapped up. He didn't manage to stand out and was consequently released.

Currently, it appears that Archer has Sting in his sights. Over the next few weeks, his possible feud against Sting will determine the sort of run he has in AEW.
