Big Swole vs. Diamante ‘three strikes’ match set for AEW Dark
The rivalry between Big Swole and Diamante will finally boil over on Tuesday’s AEW Dark as the two will square off in the first-ever three strikes match.
The rules of the match: two out of three falls with wins possible by pin, submission or knockout. The two have been at odds this summer which has played out on both Dark and Dark: Elevation.
Tuesday’s show will also see the return of The Acclaimed as a tag team following Max Caster’s unexplained absence following his controversial pre-match rap last month. He and Anthony Bowens will face Robert Anthony and Shawn Dean in their return.
The Dark Order’s internal problems continue as Evil Uno will face Alan “5” Angels. Angels grew tired of Uno’s leadership decisions and called for a match during Monday’s Dark: Elevation. In other action, Stu Grayson and Colt Cabana will team up to take on Travis Titan and RSP (Rickey Shane Page).
Indie standout Lee Moriarty returns to AEW as he faces newly-turned heel Joey Janela.
Here’s the full seven-match lineup:
- Diamante vs. Big Swole three strikes match
- Dark Order’s Evil Uno vs. Alan “5” Angels
- Lance Archer vs. Jason Hotch
- The Bunny vs. Laynie Luck
- The Acclaimed vs. Robert Anthony and Shawn Dean
