Fans will pack Liacouras Center to witness the matches in person. Those at home can catch “AEW Dynasty” on pay-per-view. One marquee match set for the card will be an AEW World Championship match between titleholder Jon Moxley and Swerve Strickland. Moxley and his Death Riders faction slammed Strickland onto glass during Wednesday’s episode of “AEW Dynamite,” but Strickland laughed off the attack, leaving Moxley speechless.
An AEW Women’s World Championship match is also scheduled. Champion “Timeless” Toni Storm was recently pinned by her “AEW Dynasty” challenger Megan Bayne in tag team action. Tonight, Storm will look to somehow topple the giant that is Bayne.
A triple threat match will be contested for the AEW International Championship. Titleholder Kenny Omega hopes to withstand both Ricochet and “Speedball” Mike Bailey and enter “AEW All In” as the AEW International Champion. This will be Bailey’s first title match in AEW.
Tensions appear to be brewing within Rated FTR. The three will challenge Death Riders for the AEW World Trios Championship. Could there be a heel turn brewing?
