Jon Moxley will be in action on Wednesday’s New Year’s Day edition of Dynamite.
AEW announced this morning that Moxley vs. Trent Barreta has been added to the card for Wednesday’s show. It’s being held at Daily’s Place amphitheater in Jacksonville, Florida.
Moxley responding to AEW World Champion Chris Jericho’s offer to join the Inner Circle is also scheduled for the episode.
In AEW’s final top-five roster rankings of 2019, Moxley was ranked as the top contender in the men’s division.
Kenny Omega & The Young Bucks vs. PAC & The Lucha Bros, AEW Women’s Champion Riho defending her title against Nyla Rose, Britt Baker, and Hikaru Shida in a four-way match, and Cody Rhodes vs. Darby Allin have also been announced for the New Year’s Day Dynamite, and MJF will appear and give his stipulations for an upcoming match against Cody.
Riho was originally supposed to defend her title against Kris Statlander, but Statlander was pulled from the show due to a scheduling conflict and will instead get her title shot on the January 8 episode of Dynamite in Southaven, Mississippi.
