AEW has been on fire lately and Revolution looks set to be another stellar show.
The card is looking stacked – featuring a huge ladder match, Sting’s first match since 2015 and even an exploding barbed wire deathmatch. Plus, the promotion will announce a “Hall of Fame worthy” signing.
Without further ado, here are six bold predictions for Sunday’s event.
6. An Impact Talent Will Show Up
There is a lot of hype surrounding the ‘Face of the Revolution’ Ladder match, with fans keen to see who the surprise entrant will be.
AEW has formed an interesting partnership with Impact Wrestling in recent months. The Good Brothers have regularly appeared on Dynamite while Matt Hardy, Private Party and even Kenny Omega have all shown up in Impact.
This match is the perfect opportunity to showcase someone like Chris Bey, one of Impact’s most exciting talents. Equally, it could also be used to set up a champ versus champ match – who wouldn’t want to see Darby Allin take on Rich Swann or Moose?
5. Darby Allin Will Do His Biggest Stunt Yet
Darby Allin has been one of AEW’s biggest success stories.
The TNT Champion has become one of the most popular stars on the roster due to his awesome look and death-defying stunts. It’s not every day you get to team up with a legend like Sting, and no doubt Allin will want to do something crazy to mark the occasion.
He’s already been dragged along the road in a body bag and taken one of the most brutal table spots in recent history thanks to Team Taz. We can’t wait to see what he does next.
4. The Dark Order Will Score a Big Win
The wrestling world has rallied around the Dark Order since the tragic passing of Brodie Lee late last year.
The group is now almost unrecognizable from its cult-like origins. They have become one of the most popular acts on Dynamite due to their brave efforts throughout Lee’s tribute show and more recently their wholesome friendship with ‘Hangman’ Adam Page.
Given their over-the-top character work, it’s easy to forget that Stu Grayson and Evil Uno are a superb tag team when they step in the ring. Revolution will include the first-ever Tag Team Casino Battle Royale with a shot at the AEW World Tag Team Championship on the line.
It would be awesome to see the pair earn a big win on Pay-Per-View and go on to fight for the gold.
3. Ryo Mizunami Will Dethrone Shida
The AEW Women’s division has come a long way over the past few months and Hikaru Shida’s reign has been a huge part of the journey.
The Japanese star is a great fighting champion and has put on thrilling bouts with Nyla Rose, Penelope Ford and Thunder Rosa. However, she will have been champion for 288 days by the time Revolution comes around and perhaps it’s time for a change.
Ryo Mizunami is very underrated and a win over Shida would instantly make her look like a star. Plus, she has momentum on her side after pinning Nyla Rose to win the inaugural AEW Women’s Title Eliminator Tournament.
2. Kurt Angle Will Join AEW
Paul Wight’s shocking announcement on Dynamite sent social media into a frenzy, with fans eager to find out who AEW’s “Hall of Fame worthy” signing is.
There have been lots of rumours flying around, including some realistic options like Rob Van Dam and also some crazy suggestions like Brock Lesnar and CM Punk. But what if Kurt Angle is the star joining AEW?
Angle was released by WWE last year and hasn’t wrestled since his underwhelming retirement match with Baron Corbin at WrestleMania 35. The Olympic Hero is in great shape and there’s every chance he will want to end his in-ring career on a high.
1. MJF Will Betray Chris Jericho
MJF’s role in the Inner Circle has been one of the highlights of Dynamite over the past few months. Friedman has already caused mayhem within the group, turning Sammy Guevara against his brothers.
Now, it seems like a matter of time until he turns on Chris Jericho. While it would be interesting to see the pair get a run with the Tag Titles, the story doesn’t really need the gold and there’s still mileage in the Young Bucks’ reign.
There are so many ways it could go – will MJF turn his back on the Inner Circle or try to steal control of the group from Le Champion? And what role will Guevara play? We will have to wait until AEW Revolution to find out.
