Championship gold will be the main focus of this evening’s episode of AEW Dynamite from the Boeing Center in San Antonio, Texas.
Two title matchups, the announcement of a bracket to crown the first-ever women’s tag champions, and a championship celebration have all been confirmed for this evening’s card, which will air live on TBS.
The latest addition to the lineup is a 12-belt celebration for Mercedes Moné.
While currently on the longest all-time reign with the AEW TBS Championship, Moné also holds titles with RevPro, CMLL, Chaotic Wrestling, EWA, Bestya, PTW, Discovery Wrestling, BODYSLAM, ROH, and WPW.
After a weekend which saw her defend her CMLL belt in Mexico, take interim ROH TV gold off Mina Shirakawa, then dethrone Jody Threat at WPW in Winnipeg, Moné will celebrate her championship achievements on Wednesday.
It was revealed earlier in the week that two title matchups will go down as part of Wednesday night’s show.
The Hurt Syndicate will look to claim their first-ever trios gold when they take on The Opps. The former tag champs earned the opportunity after overcoming The Demand in a #1 contenders match at WrestleDream last weekend, closing out a lengthy rivalry between the two factions.
Also, after pinning Kazuchika Okada in tag action last weekend, Bandido will get a shot at the Japanese star’s Unified Championship on Wednesday night.
The long-awaited reveal for the AEW Women’s Tag Team Championship Tournament will also take place on Wednesday night. The titles were unveiled in September, with a tournament to find the first champions being teased at the time. Now, we’re just hours away from finding out who specifically will be vying for the belts.
Here’s an updated look at everything announced for this evening:
- Samoa Joe, Katsuyori Shibata & Powerhouse Hobbs vs. MVP, Shelton Benjamin & Bobby Lashley (AEW World Trios Championships)
- Kazuchika Okada vs. Bandido (AEW Unified Championship)
- AEW Women’s Tag Team Championship Tournament Bracket Reveal
- 12 Belts Mercedes Moné Celebration
