AEW has officially added Jade Cargill vs. Athena to the lineup for next weekend's All Out 2022 pay-per-view.

Reigning TBS Champion Cargill was actually the one who fired out the challenge during a backstage promo on Friday's edition of Rampage. Then, in a fun moment, Athena raced into view out of nowhere and attacked the champ.

This must be considered a notable step in the right direction for their feud. Previously, Tony Khan's booking had been muddied by the inclusion of a now-injured Kris Statlander, and that never really felt like a great fit when full focus needed to be on ex-WWE star Athena.

Now, finally, Athena gets her one-on-one shot.

Cargill has held the TBS Title for a whopping 230 days at time of writing. AEW might be tempted to pen a title switch at All Out then, and try out Athena in the championship hot seat. However, Khan and staff may also argue that Jade deserves to hold onto that belt for as long as humanly possible.

She certainly hasn't grown stale in the role. Perhaps another successful defence is the right way to go.
