🔥 Main Event Showdown: The Clash of Titans
Confirmed: “The American Dragon” Bryan Danielson vs. “The Bastard” PAC – 2 Out of 3 Falls Match
The main event is locked in—Bryan Danielson and PAC will collide in a brutal 2 Out of 3 Falls Match, a stipulation that guarantees a war of attrition. These two technical masters have been at each other’s throats for weeks, with PAC costing Danielson a shot at the AEW World Championship and Danielson retaliating with a shocking assault on PAC’s Death Triangle allies.
- What’s at Stake?
- Pride & Revenge – This feud has gotten personal, with PAC mocking Danielson’s “respectable veteran” persona, while Danielson has accused PAC of being a “coward hiding behind cheap tactics.”
- Future Title Implications – The winner could position themselves as the next challenger for the AEW World Championship.
- Prediction:
This will be a match-of-the-year contender, with both men pushing each other to the limit. Expect PAC’s high-flying brutality to clash with Danielson’s relentless submission game. The deciding fall may come down to who can outlast the other in a 30+ minute classic.
🏆 AEW TNT Championship: Open Challenge Accepted!
Confirmed: Samoa Joe (c) vs. Mystery Opponent – TNT Championship Match
Samoa Joe has reinstated his open challenge policy, daring anyone in the locker room to step up. The reigning TNT Champion has been on a dominant streak, dismantling every challenger with his vicious strikes and Coquina Clutch.
- Who Could Answer the Call?
- Wardlow – The powerhouse has been absent since his brutal loss to Joe months ago. A surprise return could set up a monster vs. monster rematch.
- Claudio Castagnoli – The Swiss Superman has been on a tear in ROH, and a crossover challenge would be a dream match.
- AEW Debut? – Could we see a shocking debut from a WWE or NJPW star?
- Prediction:
Joe retains, but the real story will be who steps up—and whether they can survive his onslaught.
💥 Grudge Match: The Elite’s Civil War Escalates
Confirmed: Hangman Adam Page vs. “Switchblade” Jay White – No Disqualification
The tension within The Elite has finally erupted into all-out war. Hangman Page and Jay White have been trading verbal barbs and sneak attacks for weeks, leading to this No DQ showdown.
- The Stakes:
- Control of The Elite – With Kenny Omega still sidelined, the faction’s leadership is up for grabs.
- Blood & Vengeance – Hangman has accused White of manipulating the group, while White claims Hangman is “too weak” to lead.
- What to Expect:
- Weapons, interference, and chaos.
- Bullet Club Gold (Austin & Colten Gunn) could get involved.
- A potential turning point for The Elite’s future.
- Prediction:
Jay White cheats to win, further isolating Hangman and setting up a future Omega return.
👊 Tag Team Turmoil: The Road to Gold
Confirmed: FTR vs. The Young Bucks – #1 Contender’s Match
The greatest tag team rivalry in AEW history reignites as FTR and The Young Bucks battle to determine the next challengers for the AEW World Tag Team Championships.
- History Lesson:
- Their past matches have been instant classics (All Out 2022, Dynamite 2023).
- Both teams are coming off losses and need this win to stay in title contention.
- Prediction:
FTR wins clean, but The Bucks attack post-match, reigniting their feud.
