Sneak preview of Dynamite in the Salt Lake City metro area
AEW currently has four matches on the card announced for Wednesday’s Dynamite broadcast from the Maverik Center in the Salt Lake City metropolitan city of West Valley City.
Nearly all members of the Inner Circle will be in action, as Ortiz (with Santana) faces off against Cody Rhodes (with Arn Anderson) and Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara will be in non-title action against “Hangman” Page and a mystery partner, as Kenny Omega is still not cleared to compete. It is not known what Jake Hager’s role will be on the show.
The newly-formed faction of Death Triangle (PAC, Pentagon Jr. and Rey Fenix) will be in trios action against Private Party and “The Bad Boy” Joey Janela.
Jurassic Express will also be in trios action against Maxwell Jacob Friedman, The Butcher and The Blade (with Wardlow and The Bunny).
Expected during the broadcast is the announcement of rules for the March 25 “Blood and Guts” Dynamite broadcast, which has the Inner Circle facing off against The Elite in the titular match.
