AEW released their latest rankings (Oct. 27, 2021). Let’s check out the movers and shakers.
Men:

Lance Archer dropped out from #4 after tasting defeat at the hands of Eddie Kingston. Miro moved up one spot, and 10 entered the mix. 10’s placement is likely short-term, since he has the unenviable task of wrestling Jon Moxley tonight on Dynamite in the AEW World Title Eliminator tournament. On the championship side, Sammy Guevara will defend the TNT title against Ethan Page on Dynamite.
Women:

No changes for the women.

No changes for the tag team division either.
