AEW Dynamite (7/27) Preview: Fight For The Fallen Hosts 3 Title Bouts And Bryan Danielson’s Return
It’s Wednesday, and you know what that means!
Tonight, AEW presents Fight for the Fallen. As part of the show, Bryan Danielson will return to action, there will be two World Championship matches, and Jungle Boy will speak for the first time since being betrayed by Christian Cage.
Here’s everything you need to know before tonight’s episode of AEW Dynamite on TBS!
Danhausen Goes For Gold
The very nice and yet very evil, Danhausen attempts to become a champion for the first time in AEW as he challenges Ricky Starks for the FTW Championship. This is the first time Ricky will be defending his gold on back-to-back episodes of Dynamite and he looks to make an example out of Danhausen. Can Danhausen pull it off? We will find out tonight.
Sammy Guevara In Action
The future of AEW will take the spotlight as Sammy Guevara will face Dante Martin tonight. Both men are known for their acrobatics but Sammy is known for being willing to take a shortcut. Can Dante Martin pick up the biggest victory of his career? Will Sammy Guevara use Dante to get back into a championship picture? Eddie Kingston may be watching which may lead to Sammy Guevara having to watch his back.
Swerve Strickland Goes Against All Odds
Swerve looks to shut up Mark Sterling and Tony Nese once and for all as he takes them on in a handicap match without his tag team partner, Keith Lee. Even with the odds against him, Swerve looks to prove that it’s still his house and he’s just getting started.
Thunder Rosa Defends Her Gold
After losing to Miyu Yamashita in Tokyo Joshi Pro, the Japanese star now returns in order to get a Women’s World Championship match. Thunder looks to continue to prove that she is the best in the world but Yamashita looks to be the second Japanese-born Women’s World Champion in history.
Jungle Boy Speaks
After having his family mocked by Christian Cage, Jungle Boy returns and he will address Christian Cage’s betrayal for the first time tonight on Dynamite. What will Christian have to say once he hears Jungle Boy’s intentions for revenge?
RUSH Gets A World Championship Opportunity
Jon Moxley continues to be a fighting champion tonight as he defends his interim World Championship against RUSH. RUSH is coming off of a major victory at Ring of Honor Death Before Dishonor and looks to Parlay that into a championship victory. Also, never forget that CM Punk is in the background healing from his injury.
Bryan Danielson Returns!
Speaking of healing from injury, Bryan Danielson is back tonight and he will take on Daniel Garcia. This is not only a continuation of the Jericho Appreciation Society vs. Blackpool Combat Club rivalry , Bryan Danielson is out for Revenge after being on the shelf for 2 months.
That is just everything that is announced for tonight. Claudio Castagnoli is the new Ring of Honor World Champion and he is likely to be in the building. Wardlow wants to continue to prove that it’s his world. FTR are white hot coming off of a major victory against Mark and Jay Briscoe at Ring of Honor Death Before Dishonor. Chris Jericho is not likely to be in attendance following the injuries he suffered during last week’s Barbed Wire Everywhere Deathmatch, but Jade Cargill is still undefeated.
