New MCU Report Confirms Fan Theory Regarding How Shang-Chi Set Up the Multiverse Saga


There have been a lot of questions regarding how the current Multiverse Saga in the MCU will play into the fold as more films and TV shows are getting released in the next few years and more characters and mythology are added to the ever-growing universe. As the Infinity Saga has the Infinity Stones, fans are wondering about what its equivalent will be in the Multiverse Saga.

Now, a new report from The Illuminerdi has claimed that the Ten Rings that were introduced in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Kamala Khan's bangle in Ms. Marvel are indeed connected as they were left on Earth by the same aliens years ago, confirming a popular theory regarding their connection ever since the third episode of Ms. Marvel aired.

The report also indicated that these cosmic weapons will be similar to the Infinity Stones in the Infinity Saga, which became part of the larger mystery of the first three phases culminating in Thanos' wrath in Avengers: Infinity War. It is unknown yet how these weapons will lead up to the later entries in the franchise.

For now, we have to take this report with a grain of salt and we might not know the answer until we watch any of the future projects that will address these cosmic weapons even further and see how the whole saga will unfold in the next few years.

Considering that the mid-credits scene of Shang-Chi hinted that the Ten Rings may have a more ancient alien origin (which is also transmitting a beacon for mysterious reasons) and the third episode of Ms. Marvel showed an easter egg of the Ten Rings logo during a flashback scene where the bangle was discovered, it makes sense that those two has a connection and could play into the Multiverse Saga.

Right now, we don't have any answers regarding how the cosmic weapons will play into the future of the MCU and how their connection will also play into the Multiverse Saga itself. Either way, it looks like this popular fan theory is more valid than we think.
