How Kang and the Ten Rings Could Be Connected
A few shots from the "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" trailers seem very similar to the Ten Rings in a way that makes me feel like they're connected. This article will explain my theory.

This is the first theory-like article I’ve done, so bear with me because it might not be the prettiest thing you’ve ever seen, but I will do my best to get the point across. Starting with what was shown in Quantumania, Kang uses this massive device inside of the Quantum Realm. On this device, there are multiple rings that give off a strange glow from their markings when they rotate.

Now I’m still not sure what these rings in the Quantum Realm are exactly but look at the glow on the rings. They come from these markings on the rings. Do you remember any rings that glow in a similar way?

That’s right, I’m talking about the Ten Rings. Look at how they glow in the above image. The Ten Rings give off a similar blue-ish glow from their markings just like the rings inside of the Quantum Realm do. If we remember how Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings ended, the Ten Rings started to act as a beacon, but nobody knew where the signal was going to. This is where my theory comes in.
I think that the Ten Rings are Kang’s way to escape the Quantum Realm. After he gets back what was stolen from him in the Quantum Realm, Kang can use his Time Chair to lock onto the beacon that the Ten Rings are emitting and after he is locked on, he can bring his army to the MCU-616, leading straight into the events of Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.
It’s definitely a stretch because there’s not any solid evidence to back this up, but I feel like the glow from the rings in the Quantum Realm matching with the glow from the Ten Rings has to mean something. I suppose we’ll find out on February 17, 2023…
