AEW All Out 2022: 10 Things That Must Happen
9. House Of Black Wins
Malakai’s crew badly needs this.
Darby Allin, Sting and Miro aren’t a proper unit, so losing to them would suck for House Of Black. There’s also been a worrying amount of back-and-forth in bouts HOB should be owning (like a recent scrap with Dark Order), and that has done little to present Black's squad as dangerous.
Their in-ring work often conflicts with the story commentators want to tell too, which is irritating. Excalibur and pals wax lyrical about how threatening the trio are whilst Brody King is selling for 10 like the Order man is Hulk Hogan in 1987, and that's jarring.
Come Sunday, the smart move would be giving Malakai a quick pin over Darby then moving Black onto a match vs. Miro one-on-one. If the Bulgarian pulls a fast one over House Of Black here, then they might be dead in the water by the time this 'Redeemer' even gets to the head of the pack.
