Texas Chainsaw Massacre death match announced for AEW Dynamite
In a most unusual match, Jeff Jarrett will take on Jeff Hardy in a Texas Chain Saw Massacre death match on this Wednesday’s Fight for the Fallen edition of AEW Dynamite.
The match is a sponsorship for the new video game that is aligned with the famous movie. It will be their first singles match since a December 2011 cage match at TNA Final Resolution.
Jarrett told Hardy they should both bring their crews, so there will be plenty of people involved.
In another new bout, AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy will defend against former partner Wheeler Yuta. Cassidy defeated Johnny TV on Friday’s Rampage to score his 28th title defense while Yuta is still looking for his first run with AEW gold.
Here’s the current card for this Wednesday in Nashville, Tennessee:
- AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy defends against Wheeler Yuta
- Jeff Jarrett vs. Jeff Hardy death match
- MJF & Adam Cole talk about All In
- Darby Allin & Nick Wayne vs. Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona)
- Winner advances to AEW All In Women’s title four-way: Britt Baker vs. The Bunny
- Jim Ross sits down with Kenny Omega
