AEW returns to Texas tonight as Dynamite takes over the Bayou Music Center in Houston. The action-packed show continues the promotionâs fall tour with major matches, including a six-man tag team showdown, a key round in the AEW Womenâs World Tag Team Championship Tournament, and the beginning of the Blood & Guts Advantage battles.
AEW World Champion Hangman Adam Page will join forces with Hook and Eddie Kingston to take on AEW World Trios Champions The Opps, consisting of Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, and Katsuyori Shibata. Their rivalry intensified last week after Pageâs wild Halloween disguise as Tony Schiavone allowed him to ambush the trio. With Joe eyeing revenge and his Full Gear world title rematch looming, tensions will be sky-high. While The Opps bring team chemistry and experience, the unlikely trio of Page, Hook, and Kingston are teaming together for the first time, adding unpredictability to this volatile matchup.
In the AEW Womenâs World Tag Team Championship Tournament, two dominant champions will unite for a blockbuster quarterfinal. TBS Champion Mercedes MonĂ© and ROH Womenâs World Champion Athena will make their tournament debut against Harley Cameron and Willow Nightingale, known as the Babes of Wrath. MonĂ© and Athena recently outsmarted AEW Womenâs World Champion Kris Statlander on Dynamite, only for Cameron and Nightingale to rush in for the save. Tonightâs clash could expose whether MonĂ©âs packed schedule, balancing Blood & Guts, Full Gear, and her championship defenses, will impact her focus.
The Blood & Guts Advantage battles also kick off tonight to determine which teams will hold the crucial one-person edge heading into next weekâs massive event. In the menâs division, The Conglomerationâs Orange Cassidy will battle the Death Ridersâ Claudio Castagnoli, followed by Darby Allin facing Daniel Garcia. If both teams split the wins, a tiebreaker between Roderick Strong and Jon Moxley will take place on Collision. On the womenâs side, Queen Aminata meets Megan Bayne in their opening contest to determine the early lead for their teams.
