AEW adds lumberjack stip to Cody-Orange Cassidy TNT title match
October 23, 2020 | News | No Comments
Next Wednesday’s TNT Championship match between Cody and Orange Cassidy on AEW Dynamite will now be a lumberjack match, added due to the Dark Order threatening to interfere.
The winner of the match will defend the title against Darby Allin at Full Gear. Cody and Cassidy went to a 20-minute draw on last week’s Dynamite, leading to the rematch being signed.
Next week’s show will also feature the semifinals of an eight man tournament for an AEW World title shot as Kenny Omega will take on Fenix while Hangman Page will wrestle Wardlow. The winners will move on to the finals at Full Gear.
Also announced was a town hall held by the Inner Circle to decide whether MJF should join the group. He and Chris Jericho had a steak dinner that broke out into a song and dance routine Wednesday to advance the storyline that has been brewing over the past month.
Finally, Abadon will return to Dynamite against Tay Conti. Since losing to Hikaru Shida in her March debut, Abadon has won five straight while Conti is coming off a late-September win over Red Velvet.
