I just realized something...the Scarlet Witch is prophesized to either rule or annihilate the cosmos. What if she does both? I mean, what if she becomes the ruler of Battle World?
I'd rather it be a prophecy she works to prove wrong. Like other heroes get to do. The Darkhold isn't always right. It's actually something that could be manipulative at times. The whole read it to get your greatest wishes but end up having bad things happen from it was a thing for some of it's history. And she destroyed all those books anyway, and tore down the temple.

I just realized something. Michael Waldron said that Wanda was suppose to be a villain for an Avenger movie. What if the plan was to have her rule Battleworld alongside Doom? There were rumors of a Children's Crusade adaptation.
Wakanda is a hereditary monarchy and the role of king can be taken by ritual combat. So T'Challa wasn't exactly elected either.
Now would Wanda have been a maniacal ruler? I'm not sure. If she does become ruler of Battleworld, I don't think she will be slasher villain crazy like in MoM. Maybe a benevolent dictator like Doom is portrayed in some comics.

And that matters none to what would happen to Wanda if they decided to do something like that.
Wanda has never been nor wanted to be a ruler. She wanted to live out her life in Leonia. NJ and occasionally do hero work. There's never been an example of her being a "benevolent ruler" nor wanting to be. I think you are baiting here.
