Brodie Lee to make AEW in-ring debut on Dynamite
After being revealed as The Exalted One last Wednesday, Brodie Lee is set to make his AEW in-ring debut.
In an advertisement that AEW posted for tonight’s Dynamite episode, it was announced that Lee will have his first match for AEW on the show. AEW didn’t reveal who Lee will be facing.
Lee and The Dark Order attacked SCU’s Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian last week after Lee was revealed as The Exalted One. Daniels — who had been claiming that The Exalted One didn’t actually exist — was laid out by a discus lariat from Lee.
Tonight’s Dynamite was originally set to be headlined by the Blood and Guts match between The Inner Circle and The Elite & Matt Hardy, but AEW announced that the time and circumstances aren’t right for the card they had planned for Blood and Guts and the show will instead happen when the time is right.
Chris Jericho and Hardy will instead have a confrontation on tonight’s Dynamite. Kenny Omega will defend his AAA Mega Championship against Sammy Guevara, and Cody will take on Jimmy Havoc. Cody will also be joining Tony Schiavone on commentary tonight.
