Not too shocking, as the loss in the title match will make it an uphill climb for him moving forward. <strong>Orange Cassidy<\/strong> returns to the top spot for the first time in a bit while <strong>Powerhouse Hobbs<\/strong> makes a surprising appearance at number two after defeating Brian Cage last week. <strong>Jungle Boy<\/strong> and <strong>Jon Moxley<\/strong> close out the rest of the spots in the rankings, respectively.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Women&#8217;s Rankings<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/qaLLh78.jpg?1\" alt=\"AEW Women's Rankings\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Well, that was fast. After winning the Casino Battle Royale in her first match as a member of the AEW roster, <strong>Ruby Soho<\/strong> has jumped ahead of everyone to the number one spot in the rankings. Her addition to the division as a whole is welcoming but her impact off the bat is something to keep an eye on. The rest of the field makes the most sense as <strong>Thunder Rosa<\/strong> continues to hover near the top with her impressive record, former champion <strong>Hikaru Shida<\/strong> still has yet to find someone who can beat her besides the champion, <strong>Kris Statlander<\/strong> falls after coming up short, and <strong>Jade Cargill<\/strong>&#8216;s undefeated streak speaks for itself. There&#8217;s more to be excited about here than some think but it will take time to see who can actually dethrone the doctor.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tag Team Rankings<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/M38CGjN.jpg?1\" alt=\"Tag Team AEW Rankings\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Lucha Brothers<\/strong> have become the new AEW World Tag Team Champions, taking them from<strong> The Young Bucks<\/strong>. The big movers on this list besides the former champions are <strong>The Buther &amp; The Blade<\/strong> as well as <strong>Santana &amp; Ortiz<\/strong>. The Butcher returned Sunday and has instantly allowed their team to jump back in as the only undefeated team left in the division. Santana &amp; Ortiz picking up a win over <strong>FTR<\/strong> last week has them in title contention for the first time in a while.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>More from LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><em>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a>\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
