All Out is finally behind us and it was a fantastic show from start to finish, although it did run a bit too long. Chris Jericho was crowned the first All Elite Wrestling world champion while Riho and Nyla Rose will now face off in the future for the AEW Women's Championship.

What did we learn from last nights show about the future of AEW? Let's take a look at some of the things we felt that All Elite Wrestling subtly told us on last night's show.

#5 Tully Blanchard and Shawn Spears’ partnership may be over

The most heated match of the night at All Out had to be the fight between Cody and Shawn Spears. The match was heated from the get-go, and who could blame Cody, after what Shawn Spears did to him at All Elite Wrestling’s Fyter Fest show.

One thing we repeatedly noticed during the match was just how effective Tully Blanchard was as Spears’ manager. Blanchard did his job to the hilt until Arn Anderson interfered in the match and hit Spears with a Spine Buster. This bafflingly led to Tully Blanchard following Arn out of the arena, seemingly being more interested, at that point, in Arn’s motive behind attacking Spears rather than continuing to look after his client.

This may have been a hint that Tully and Shawn Spears’ partnership was a one-off rather than a permanent pairing. If that is the case, it’s a shame. Tully and Spears worked great together and the pairing could have really helped Spears come into his own and cement his spot on the All Elite Wrestling card.

#4 PAC vs Hangman Page is coming

One big future match AEW hinted at happened after All Out went off the air. AEW’s Twitter handle shared a short video of what happened when Hangman Page went backstage after his main event loss against Chris Jericho.

In the video shared by AEW, which you can check out below, we see PAC berating Hangman Page when he came backstage. For those who remember PAC was originally supposed to face Page at All In but the match was canceled after the former had visa issues, By the looks of it, we may see PAC vs Page sooner rather than later.


#3 Riho could be the first AEW Women’s Champion

On paper, Riho has an insurmountable task ahead of her when she faces Nyla Rose for the AEW Women’s Championship. However, for those who have watched every AEW show till now, you’ll notice that that’s exactly how Riho has been portrayed – someone who overcomes the odds.

Although Riho will be physically outclassed by Nyla Rose, we can expect that Riho will fight on against the odds and may just win the match.

#2 Santana and Ortiz will shake up the tag-team division

One of the biggest matches on the All Out card was The Lucha Bros taking on The Young Bucks in a ladder match for the AAA Tag-Team titles. After the incredible match, which was won by Fenix and Pentagon, we saw two masked men come out. They laid out both the Bucks and the Lucha Bros before unmasking – revealing themselves to be Santana and Ortiz, formerly in Impact Wrestling as part of LAX.

Santana and Ortiz made a huge impact on their debut and it’s clear that they will be one of the lynchpins of the All Elite Wrestling’s tag-team division.

#1 Kenny Omega will not be Chris Jericho’s first challenger

Chris Jericho faced Hangman Page in the main event of All Out. Despite a hard-fought match and getting busted open, it was the wily veteran Chris Jericho who left as the first All Elite Wrestling World Champion.

As for Kenny Omega, he faced PAC instead of the injured Jon Moxley. To most people’s surprise, it was a night to forget for Omega who lost the match after passing out to The Brutalizer. Although we don't know who Chris Jericho will face next, it certainly looks like that man will NOT be Kenny Omega.
