AEW Updates Rankings, Chris Jericho Drops Out Of Top-5

Chris Jericho

AEW updated its rankings on Friday, April 24th, 2020. The promotion normally releases its new rankings every Wednesday. The rankings were briefly available on AEW’s website on the 22nd but that edition has since been removed.

The updated rankings involve Chris Jericho dropping out of the top-5 altogether. The tag-team and women’s rankings are unchanged from the ones posted on April 22nd.

Updated AEW Men’s Single’s Rankings

Champion: Jon Moxley (9-0)

  1. Cody (7-1)
  2. Kenny Omega (4-0) (+1)
  3. Darby Allin (5-2) (previously unranked)
  4. Lance Archer (3-0) (+1)
  5. Jake Hager (4-1) (-1)

Darby Allin also goes from unranked to #3 after defeating Sammy Guevara in the TNT title tournament this week. Jake Hager had been ranked #4 and Lance Archer #5 but they switched places between the April 22nd and 24th rankings despite neither of them competing on Dynamite this week.

The updated rankings as of April 24th are below:

It is possible that Chris Jericho’s 0-1 single’s record in 2020 is why he was removed from the top-5. His only single’s match this year was when he dropped the AEW World Championship to Jon Moxley at Revolution.

AEW Women’s and Tag Team Rankings

Both the women’s and tag-team divisional rankings stayed the same between the Wednesday and Friday editions of the rankings. They are below:
