AEW Weekly Power Rankings: Emi Sakura, Hikaru Shida, and SCU!
AEW Men’s Singles Division Power Rankings
Honorable Mention: PAC (2-0-1) [Last Week: 4] and Kenny Omega (2-2-0) [Last Week: 5]
Two major stars in AEW slip into honorable mention this week, as PAC and Kenny Omega look towards big matches at AEW Full Gear. Omega did score the pinfall in a trios match this week on Dynamite, but two other stars with singles division wins pushed ahead of him.
5. “Hangman” Adam Page (3-2-0) [Last Week: Unranked]
“Hangman” Adam Page has been having a rough time since losing to Chris Jericho in the match to crown the inaugural AEW World Champion. Page finally rebounded from that this week with a singles win over Sammy Guevara on Dynamite, and now he looks to Full Gear where he’ll take on PAC in what has the potential to be the biggest win of his AEW tenure.
4. Darby Allin (3-1-1) [Last Week: Honorable Mention]
Speaking of people who lost title matches, Darby Allin continues to prove himself despite having lost his championship attempt at Chris Jericho due to the interference of Jake Hager. Allin competed on AEW Dark this week in a Falls Count Anywhere Three Way and came away with a win over Jack Evans and Jimmy Havoc.
3. Jon Moxley (1-0-1) [Last Week: 3]
If there’s any man that is outkicking his record right now, it’s Jon Moxley. After finding out his Full Gear matchup against Kenny Omega will be unsanctioned, Moxley bashed AEW and the win-loss records, following it up by saying what happens to Kenny Omega at Full Gear is on the company’s hands. Even without an in-ring victory this week, Moxley is rolling in momentum.
2. Cody (3-0-1) [Last Week: 2]
Our final two spots on the men’s singles division power rankings continue to be directly tied to the AEW World Championship. Cody has his focus set on Full Gear where he will challenge reigning champion Chris Jericho. Unfortunately for Cody, it was Jericho who got the last laugh this week on Dynamite after Jake Hager destroyed Dustin Rhodes in the parking lot.
1. Chris Jericho (4-0-0) [Last Week: 1]
Finally, still at the tippy top is AEW World Champion Chris Jericho. With an unblemished record and a dominant title reign heading into Full Gear, Jericho looks to have another successful title defense against Cody. After Jake Hager of The Inner Circle demolished Dustin Rhodes, Jericho was able to leave with a clear advantage as the rivalry stands right now.
