Tony Khan has announced a new tournament leading to a championship opportunity at the upcoming AEW Dynasty PPV event.
The AEW President took to Twitter late on Tuesday to reveal the brackets for the competition, with the winner receiving a shot at Kenny Omega’s International Championship. The list includes superstars from multiple different countries as well as non-AEW names like CMLL star Hechicero. There is also a wildcard entry who will be facing The Beast Mortos.
The good thing for fans is that they will not have to wait too long to find out who the wildcard entry into the mix is as it’s one of the two matches confirmed to be taking place at this Wednesday’s episode of Dynamite:
The Rebuilding of Kenny Omega
Kenny Omega returned to AEW after more than a year of inaction at the Worlds End PPV last month. He originally confronted the Continental Classic Champion Kazuchika Okada at the show but later started a feud with the Don Callis Family.
This feud led to The Cleaner’s first PPV match on American soil in over a year at the Revolution PPV this past Sunday. He defeated Konosuke Takeshita at the show to become the new International Champion.
The former IWGP Heavyweight champion will be making an appearance at the Dynamite episode as well and he’s been announced for a promo at the show.
