AEW WrestleDream card finalized with new segment, stipulation

AEW has announced a new segment and a new stipulation for Saturday’s WrestleDream pay-per-view.

The previously announced Hurt Syndicate vs. The Demand trios match will now take place under tornado tag rules. The new stipulation for the bout was revealed on Wednesday’s Dynamite episode.

Also new for the pay-per-view, TBS Champion Mercedes Mone will make an appearance as she celebrates passing Jade Cargill as the longest-reigning TBS Champion in company history. Mone was announced for the pa-per-view in a backstage promo on Dynamite, although it was not made clear if she will be wrestling at the show.
