However, MJF is also defending his Dynamite Diamond Ring against Starks because of the challenger’s victory in last week’s Battle Royal. In what may be the biggest television match for either competitor, MJF looks to kick-start his reign of terror while Ricky looks to bring it all to a screeching halt before it can begin. Tonight, we find out who will lead AEW into 2023.

The Best Of Seven Continues

Tonight, The Elite and Death Triangle once again meet as both teams look to earn the right to call themselves the Undisputed AEW World Trios Champions. Two weeks ago, Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks were able to prevent PAC, Rey Fenix, and Penta El Zero M from sweeping them in this series. Now, they hope to continue building their momentum.

Ruby Soho Looks For Revenge

Ruby Soho has been on the shelf with a broken nose suffered at the hands of Tay Melo at AEW All Out. Tonight, she looks to go one-on-one with the woman that injured her and gain a measure of revenge. Melo, on the other hand, is looking to gain a major victory as she jockeys for position in the rankings and hopes to set the Jericho Appreciation Society back on the right track.

Chris Jericho Looks To Rebound After ROH Title Loss

Chris Jericho is no longer “The Ocho.” At ROH Final Battle, Jericho became the first person to tap out to Claudio Castagnoli’s Swing. On social media, Chris Jericho said that he kept out because if he had not, he would have suffered brain damage. He also had words for his critics saying that if it were in his position, they just would have shit their pants and cried for their mother. Now, Chris Jericho looks to get back on the right track when he is in action live on AEW Dynamite: Winter is Coming

Buddy Matthews, Brody King, and Malakai Black make their long-awaited return to trios action and in recent weeks, they have made it clear that they will make an enemy out of anyone on the roster.
