AEW promoting lucha libre match prior to Jacksonville Jaguars NFL home opener
Tony Khan is fusing two of his primary jobs — AEW and the NFL — together this Sunday.
Ahead of his Jacksonville Jaguars’ home opener, there will be a two-out-of-three falls lucha libre tag team match held at Flex Field, the NFL team’s indoor practice area that is part of the Khan family’s complex that includes Daily’s Place and EverBank Stadium where the Jaguars play.
The match will be held in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month and will feature Ring of Honor Tag Team Champion Sammy Guevara teaming with Hologram against The Beast Mortos and Matt Taven.
It’s unknown if AEW will release the footage of the match on YouTube and their social media channels. The bout is the only one announced as of this time.
It will take place from 11:30 AM to noon Eastern with the kickoff for the actual game starting at 1 PM.
The franchise has been owned by Shad Khan, Tony’s father, since 2012. This will be Tony’s 13th year with the team and his fourth as chief football strategy officer.
