- “The American Nightmare” Cody defends the TNT Championship against Scorpio Sky, who’s recently broken apart from SCU and tried his hand at singles action on AEW Dark. Can the impressive performer strip Cody’s title away from him?
The King of AEW Dark @ScorpioSky appreciates the name. But, he's ready for a new crown as he is set to challenge @CodyRhodes next week for his TNT Championship on Dynamite!

- It wouldn’t be Tag Team Appreciation Night without a title match. Therefore, Kenny Omega & Hangman Page will defend the AEW Tag Team Championships against the #5 ranked Jurassic Express (Luchasaurus & Jungle Boy w/ Marko Stunt)
- Speaking of matches that could shake up the rankings, the #4 ranked Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) could climb higher if they can overtake The Dark Order (Evil Uno and Stu Grayson), who is now ranked at #3
From @OfficialPWG to @AEWrestling…
You don't want to miss this match tomorrow night on TNT.
