The main event is, of course, the three-way match to determine the #1 contender for the FTW Championship. The match will feature HOOK versus Katsuyori Shibata and Bryan Keith. Each of these wrestlers has earned the right to challenge for the #1 contender spot. HOOK defeated Johnny TV, Keith Boulder, and Shibata defeated Rocky Romero.
In addition to this match, the show will also feature two AEW champions – International Champion Roderick Strong and Women’s Champion Toni Storm – in two tag team matches. We’ll also get a preview of Sunday’s Women’s TBS Championship match between Willow Nightengale and Mercedes Mone. All in all, it promises to be a very entertaining evening.
