#3 AEW's Malakai Black uses heel tactics to win the match

Does anyone remember Black delivering a low blow to Arn Anderson on Dynamite a few weeks ago? Black can cross any line to dominate his opponents.

Fans shouldn't be surprised if the former NXT Champion delivers a low blow or uses other heelish tactics to pick up the win over Cody.

It may disappoint the majority of the crowd in New York, however, Black is playing heel and booking like that would only generate more heat from fans against him. Moving forward, his sadistic persona can become a popular act in AEW.


#2 The Nightmare Family helps Cody Rhodes conquer Malakai Black

Imagine Dustin Rhodes, Lee Johnson, Arn Anderson, and Brock Anderson of The Nightmare Family helping Cody slay Black once and for all.

It could be a long shot, but AEW can book a cameo for these men by having them appear at a different stage of the match to seek their revenge from Malakai Black. It'll be similar to the ambulance match between Drew McIntyre and Randy Orton when Paul Wight, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, and Christian helped McIntyre.

Cody and The Nightmare Family will come full circle in putting down their arch-rival, who has made their life miserable since the beginning of this feud.
