AEW Dynamite’s Explosive Match Announcement
In an exciting development for pro wrestling fans, AEW President Tony Khan took to social media to announce a key match-up for the upcoming “AEW Dynamite”. Set to take the stage is a Texas Death Match between the AEW International Champion, Orange Cassidy, and one-half of the ROH Tag Team Champions, Matt Taven. This announcement comes as a result of Cassidy’s open challenge to the members of the Undisputed Kingdom, which Taven accepted, setting the stage for a high-octane clash.
Feud Escalation Leading to the Texas Death Match
Orange Cassidy’s rivalry with the Undisputed Kingdom has been brewing for weeks, culminating in a series of confrontations that has captivated the AEW audience. Just last week on “AEW Rampage”, Cassidy, alongside Trent Beretta and Rocky Romero, faced off against Taven, Mike Bennett, and Roderick Strong, in a match that not only saw the Undisputed Kingdom emerge victorious but also featured a post-match assault on Cassidy, further escalating tensions. This upcoming Texas Death Match on “AEW Dynamite” marks a significant milestone in this feud, being the first such match for both Cassidy and Taven within AEW.
Looking Towards AEW Revolution
With the AEW Revolution pay-per-view on the horizon, Cassidy is slated to defend his International Champion title against another member of the Undisputed Kingdom, Roderick Strong. This Texas Death Match against Matt Taven not only serves to heighten the anticipation for Cassidy’s upcoming title defense but also provides an opportunity for him to gain momentum and potentially settle scores within the faction rivalry.
Additional Dynamite Match Announcement
Further enhancing this week’s “AEW Dynamite” lineup, Tony Khan also revealed that Jon Moxley and Dax Harwood are set to face each other in singles competition. This encounter, notable for being their first one-on-one match in AEW, adds another layer of excitement to an already stacked show, ensuring that wrestling fans have plenty to look forward to.
