The lineups have been unveiled ahead of AEW’s fourth annual Anarchy in the Arena match.
The sprawling and brawling-styled match, which Samoa Joe challenged the Death Riders to on a recent episode of Dynamite, will officially go down this Sunday at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona.
While we have expected the match for a little over a week now, it was only announced on Wednesday who specifically will compete in the bout.
On the babyface side of the match, it’ll be Kenny Omega, Swerve Strickland, Katsuyori Shibata, Powerhouse Hobbs, Samoa Joe, and Willow Nightingale in action. They’ll be taking on the Death Riders squad of Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, Marina Shafir and Wheeler Yuta, along with The Young Bucks.
The heel side of the bout is notably without NJPW’s Gabe Kidd, who was involved in the segment last week when the Anarchy in the Arena challenge was initially issued.
The inclusion of Nightingale and Shafir makes the upcoming match the first time women have been included in an Anarchy in the Arena bout.
Along with the details unveiled regarding Anarchy in the Arena, it was revealed Wednesday that AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada will put his belt on the line against Mike Bailey as part of the pay-per-view card.
Bailey and Okada have met twice in the past, although the upcoming booking will be the first time they have faced off in singles action. If Bailey is able to capture his first AEW belt with a win, they’ll end a reign by Okada that has lasted more than 400 days.
It was also announced Wednesday that the Owen Hart Tournament final between Hangman Adam Page and Will Ospreay will headline Double or Nothing.
