Team AEW has filled its vacant slots with three new members for the forthcoming Blood & Guts match, joining forces with Swerve Strickland and Mark Briscoe.
During episode 250 of AEW Dynamite, two new additions were announced as The Acclaimed’s Anthony Bowens and Max Caster, who’ve had ongoing problems with The Elite. Having won against The Young Bucks in the AEW Dynamite episode on June 19, 2024, The Acclaimed are now in line for AEW World Tag Team Championships; they’ll first face off Matthew Jackson and Nicholas Jackson.

Team AEW’s complete roster was not to be revealed until Darby Allin made a dramatic appearance at the episode’s end. Paying homage to his mentor Sting, Allin descended from the ceiling ready to continue his battle against Jack Perry.
Check the rafters…It’s DARBY!
