AEW Rankings have become a massive topic for All Elite Wrestling recently, as Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. has become infatuated with them and made a statement last week when Tay Conti, previously ranked No. 1, lost. That meant it was time for Baker to take over that spot and become the new No. 1 contender. Here’s a look at all the major changes for the AEW Rankings in the men’s, women’s, and tag team divisions.

Men’s AEW Rankings:
Among the major changes in the men’s rankings, this week sees two brand new names inside the Top 5. Last week, both “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs (No. 3 Ranked) and Jungle Boy (No. 4 Ranked) lost in singles action on Dynamite. Hobbs came up short against Christian Cage while Jungle Boy lost his match to Darby Allin for the TNT Championship. What may be most interesting is that Jon Moxley has gone down in rank as well, going from No. 2 to No. 3 while PAC has risen from No. 5 to No. 4. The biggest riser is Orange Cassidy, who went from being unranked to now the No. 2 ranked wrestler in the entire men’s division. Pres10 Vance went from unranked to No. 5 and has a TNT Championship match on Dynamite this week.
Women’s AEW Rankings:
Britt Baker is finally at the top. After weeks of mocking the rankings for not being No. 1, she has claimed her spot at the top of the entire rankings. Tay Conti‘s loss to Hikaru Shida in an AEW Women’s World Champion match has brought her down from one to three. This also allowed Baker’s rival, Thunder Rosa, to climb up one more spot staying right behind Baker. The Unsanctioned Lights Out match between the two women could be the deciding factor as if it did count towards the record, Rosa would be the one at the top.
Tag Team AEW Rankings:
The only notable change in the tag team division has seen The Butcher and The Blade lose their four spot, being replaced by Anthony Bowens and Max Caster, The Acclaimed. The team returned for the first time in two months to defeat the team of Adrian Alanis and Liam Gray on Dark: Elevation to further their record to 5-1.
