"Who can stop the path of Cage?". That is the phrase spoken by Brian Cage's manager Taz every time the 'Swolverine' enters the AEW arena.

Brian Cage has held World Championships in the majority of organizations in which he has appeared in. This includes the Impact Wrestling World Championship, as well as the Lucha Underground Championship. Therefore, it could be assumed that Brian Cage will continue this pattern of being a World Champion in AEW.

Brian Cage unsuccessfully challenged for the AEW World Championship at AEW Fight For The Fallen 2020. Cage's manager, Taz, would throw in the towel when AEW World Champion Jon Moxley had a submission hold locked in on Brian Cage's surgically repaired Bicep.

Taz's subsequent explanation for his actions is that he was preventing his client from sustaining a further injury and "saving his fighter for another day". Through Taz's perseveration, Brian Cage did not suffer an injury and can, therefore, continue his path of domination in AEW.

While he has teased a breakup of his partnership with Taz, Brian Cage's size, strength and agility makes him a top performer. Therefore, it is only a matter of time before Brian Cage adds the AEW World Championship to the FTW title that he already possesses.
