Confirmed Lineups For 12/18 AEW Dynamite And NXT
Wednesday marks the final AEW Dynamite and NXT shows of the year and both are looking to end 2019 with a bang.
NXT only has two matches announced but both are title bouts. In the opening match, which will be presented commercial-free, Adam Cole will defend his NXT Championship against Finn Balor. Later in the night, Rhea Ripley will look to end Shayna Baszler’s 400+ day reign as NXT Women’s Champion.
Over on AEW Dynamite, the action will kick-off with a commercial-free tag team match that pits Kenny Omega & Hangman Page against The Lucha Bros (Fenix & Pentagon Jr). Also on the show is an AEW Tag Team Title bout with SCU (Frankie Kazarian & Scorpio Sky) defending against The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) and AEW World Champion Chris Jericho taking on Jungle Boy in a non-title, 10-minute challenge.
