AEW Full Gear preview, predictions: Can Hangman Page finally dethrone Kenny Omega?

CM Punk vs. Eddie Kingston

This match has had the least amount of build of the entire card, but it is arguably the most convincing story of the show. Eddie Kingston and CM Punk did more storytelling and building for this match in a single promo on Rampage than other wrestlers were able to do over the course of a couple of months.

These two are going to be brutal with each other and tell an amazing story in between the ropes. Kingston has been on fire recently and CM Punk is always fantastic, so there is no doubt that they will deliver to extremely high expectations.

CM Punk wins this match, but Kingston makes it very difficult. Punk and KENTA is obviously happening soon, potentially in January at Wrestle Kingdom, and Punk can not take a loss right before that happens. Meanwhile, Kingston can lose, keep looking strong, and begin building a convincing heel character that challenges for championships again.

Prediction: CM Punk def. Eddie Kingston

Miro vs. Bryan Danielson – AEW Championship Eliminator Tournament final

Miro is having the best run of his career right now. Bryan Danielson is having the best run of his career. Just ring the bell and let them wrestle. There is not much else to say.

The desperation and rage of Miro will pair beautifully with the technique and poise of Bryan Danielson. Miro will throw his body at Danielson with reckless abandon, while Danielson bends Miro’s body with an almost artistic touch.

Danielson should win this match, however, there is a bit of a weird suspicion that this match may feature some debuts/surprises. Maybe Miro’s wife finally appears and helps him get closer to a title. Maybe certain NJPW wrestlers have exceptions to the way Danielson has been burning through their roster. Is this conjecture? Yes and therefore should not be leaned on to make a prediction, but there will be no shock when shenanigans happen.

Prediction: Bryan Danielson def. Miro
