AEW announces two matches for Dynamite

The first two matches for the Wednesday, August 27 AEW Dynamite are official, including a falls count anywhere bout.

Coming off the Lights Out steel cage battle that closed Forbidden Door last Sunday, Darby Allin and Claudio Castagnoli will face off in a falls count anywhere match on this week’s Dynamite.

Allin, Will Ospreay, Kenny Omega, Hiroshi Tanahashi, and Kota Ibushi defeated Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, The Young Bucks, and Gabe Kidd in the cage in the Forbidden Door main event, but Castagnoli and Moxley’s team got their heat back by Pillmanizing Will Ospreay’s head and neck in a steel chair in an injury angle as the show closed.

A tag team matchup in the women’s division is also set for Wednesday’s episode, with Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford facing Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron.

Wednesday’s Dynamite kicks off AEW’s multi-show residency at the former ECW Arena, the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia.

The announced card to this point:

AEW Dynamite, Wednesday, August 27 —
