Seven Feuds AEW Can Book After AEW Double or Nothing 2021
AEW Double or Nothing 2021 is in the books, and AEW has a ton of television time to fill between [...]
Kenny Omega vs. Jungle Boy, Then Christian Cage

Let's start with the one we know is happening — Jungle Boy won the Casino Battle Royale on Sunday night and his title match has been confirmed for the June 9 episode of Dynamite. JB won't win, but expect Omega to make him look like a star in defeat.
As for what Omega does after that, perhaps its time to give him a quick program with Christian Cage. They've shown a ton of patience with Cage so far, and a quick one-month program with Omega before the build to All Out starts could be a lot of fun. But as for what they do with All Out...

Hangman Page vs. The Singles Division Rankings

Say what you will about AEW's ranking system, but AEW can use it to their advantage to further a story along. Hangman looked like he was on the verge of another match Omega while sitting at the No. 1 contender spot, but that surprise loss to Brian Cage a while back made him fall all the way out of the top five. Now that he has his win over Cage back, it's time to have Page slowly make his way back up the rankings by knocking people off.
Simply put, Omega vs. Page feels like the perfect move for the main event of All Out. This idea would keep Page busy and build up his momentum for a few months.

Baker vs. Thunder Rosa at All Out seems like a no-brainer. So what do you do with Baker in the mean time? Have her go up against probably the best bell-to-bell wrestler in the entire division in Deeb. Whether or not Baker chases the NWA title as well is up to Tony Khan and Billy Corgan, but that match is worth of a Dynamite main event regardless of which title is on the line.

Miro vs. Cody Rhodes
I’m the champ! Bring PETA , Peter Pan i don’t give a rats ass! #YEETthatShit

Rhodes has been out of the TNT title picture for a hot second and Miro is already talking smack about him in interviews. Let's make it happen!

I thought this Double or Nothing crowd was pretty great but then they booed Hook so I would like to go back to an empty arena please. pic.twitter.com/G5nqQmdLDf

Yes, in a perfect world Cage's departure from Team Taz would lead to a match with Ricky Starks. But Starks is hurt and Hobbs is the next man up. That's still a hoss fight worth seeing.

It made so much sense to put the tag titles on Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston. But since AEW didn't do that and isn't in the business of giving challengers multiple title shots in a row, let's pair the Bucks up with the other fan-favorite team now that live crowds are back. The Bucks vs. Uno & Grayson would probably lead to a better match (they've worked together forever), but Bucks vs. John Silver & Alex Reynolds will probably get a bigger fan reaction.

Sammy Guevara vs. MJF
The Inner Circle vs. The Pinnacle is probably over as a feud. But while Guevara was paired off with Shawn Spears throughout the faction rivalry, it still feels like a match between "The Spanish God" and MJF needs to happen.
