AEW All Out looms large this Saturday, and the card-building continues to drive momentum. Will Ospreay remains the gravitational center, while Kenny Omega’s post-All In narrative and emerging challengers like Myron Reed reshape the hierarchy.
#1. Will Ospreay
The AEW World Champion has dominated the week’s narrative, with Kenny Omega’s “hardest match of his career” comments at All In cementing Ospreay’s credibility at the top. He’s the unmistakable focal point heading into All Out.

#2. Kenny Omega
Fresh off the critically acclaimed All In main event loss, Omega is reflective and rebuilding (“It Is Not the End”). His stock remains elite; the loss to Ospreay actually elevated both men and keeps him in the conversation as a future challenger.
#3. Andrade El Idolo
Successfully defended the National Championship against Daniel Garcia on Collision, but the botched finish left a sour taste. Still, a title defense on the lead-up to All Out keeps him prominent and sets up post-PPV storylines.

#4. Myron Reed
His standout performance against Darby Allin on Collision drew immediate discussion about whether Tony Khan will give him singles runway. Reed has all the tools and just captured observer attention in a big way.
#5. Kota Ibushi
Underwent successful surgery on his femur and vowed to return despite “almost impossible” odds. His determination and recovery narrative dominate injury coverage; he remains a sympathetic, high-profile storyline.
#6. Britt Baker
Returned to the ring for the first time in nearly two years at Rebel Heart Dynamite (Sept. 9) and is expected for several upcoming TV appearances. The comeback is fresh and positioned as a major return story.
#7. Sammy Guevara
Sporadic appearances in CMLL, ROH, and AEW since June have made him a puzzle piece. His comment that “all I can do is stay ready” signals patience for his next major push, keeping him in the conversation.
#8. John Silver
Married longtime partner Denise on September 20, generating positive personal milestone coverage. While not in active storyline heat, the wholesome narrative keeps him visible and beloved by the fanbase.
#9. Rush
Addressed injury-prone rumors on social media, clarifying he’s only been injured once and is “healthy and ready always.” The statement itself signals he’s preparing to return to AEW TV soon.
#10. The Outrunners (Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd)
Truth Magnum revealed Tony Khan apparently lost track of their contract status because they worked AEW so frequently. The story humanizes their journey and keeps them in the news as a rising tag team.
Danhausen’s credit to CM Punk as his inspiration keeps him culturally relevant and nostalgic, but he lacks current on-screen momentum to crack the top 10 this week.
