#3. Eliminating Mercedes Mone and Athena

Mercedes Mone and Athena are set to face Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron in the quarter finals of the AEW Women's World Tag Team Titles tournament. The CEO and Minion Overlord have emerged as one of the strongest contenders to become the inaugural champions. Therefore, Tony Khan must avoid eliminating the two stars in the first round.

Mone and Athena have the potential to make things quite unpredictable if they go ahead in the tournament. Considering the star power of Mercedes, her addition to the battles could generate a lot of buzz around the newly introduced titles. Meanwhile, an early elimination could put AEW in an awkward spot after all the hype surrounding Mone and Athena’s team.

#2. Giving Samoa Joe a loss

Samoa Joe and his Opps are set to face Hangman Page, HOOK, and Eddie Kingston in a trios match on tonight's show. It will be a big battle between Page and Joe before they collide at AEW Full Gear later this month for the AEW World Championship. However, if The Samoan Submission Machine faced a defeat just weeks ahead of his title match, it could heavily impact his momentum.

The former WWE star has already faced a bitter loss against Hangman Page at WrestleDream. Therefore, AEW needs to make Joe look like a legit threat against The Cowboy to generate hype around their title match at Full Gear. Hence, the right result could be to give Opps and Samoa Joe a big win over their opponents on tonight's episode of Dynamite.

#1. Tony Khan must not make Death Riders look weak

Death Riders are set to be in action tonight against their Blood & Guts opponent in the advantage battles. Jon Moxley will face Roderick Strong, Claudio Castagnoli will collide with Orange Cassidy, and Daniel Garcia will square off with Darby Allin for the advantages. However, Tony Khan should make sure that the heel faction looks strong ahead of the double-cage match next week.

Jon Moxley has already suffered a big defeat at the hands of Darby Allin last month at WrestleDream. Therefore, if Mox and his group look weak on tonight's show as well, it can make the Blood & Guts result look predictable. Hence, Moxley and his crew should be able to pick up the advantage ahead of the big match to create an underdog situation for Allin's team next week.
