Tony Khan has made an announcement regarding the 2025 Continental Classic.

The annual round-robin tournament is set to begin on Wednesday’s episode of AEW Dynamite. Khan revealed in a social media post on Monday that AEW will air a Selection Show on Monday evening at 10 p.m. Eastern to announce the competitors for both the Blue and Gold Leagues.

Khan wrote:

“It’s Selection Monday! Continental Classic starts THIS WEEK on Thanksgiving Eve Wednesday Night #AEWDynamite!
After an incredible Full Gear, we reveal the Blue League + Gold League wrestlers TONIGHT!
The C2 Selection Show streams on @AEW at 10 pm ET/9 pm CT/8 pm MT/7 pm PT TONIGHT!”

The first three entrants into this year’s Continental Classic were revealed at AEW Full Gear on Saturday. In a backstage segment, it was mentioned that Kyle Fletcher, Konsosuke Takeshita, and Kazuchika Okada of the Don Callis Family will be entered. It was also noted that Kyle O’Reilly will not be cleared for the tournament due to Moxley and the Death Riders having targeted his arm at the pay-per-view.

This year’s Continental Classic will be the third straight the tournament has run. Eddie Kingston won the inaugural C2 in 2023 and Kazuchika Okada won the 2024 version.
