The card for AEW Dynamite Grand Slam has undergone a significant change after this week’s episode of Dynamite. Wednesday night’s show saw Darby Allin agree to put his AEW World Championship shot on the line against Jon Moxley at the show. Allin was originally set to get the World Title shot at the September 25th show, but Moxley went back and forth with Allin in a promo that ended with Allin agreeing to put his title shot on the line at the show.
Meanwhile, Danielson has a new opponent as Nigel McGuinness issued a challenge to Danielson, which the World Champion accepted. The match was then made official, though it’s not clear as of yet if the title is on the line. Finally, Kyle Flecther and Will Ospreay won the Casino Gauntlet Tag Team Battle Royale to earn an AEW World Tag Team Championship match against the Young Bucks.
The updated card for the show, which emanates from Arthur Ashe Stadium, is:
* AEW World Championship #1 Contender’s Match: Darby Allin vs. Jon Moxley
* AEW Tag Team Championship Match: The Young Bucks vs. Kyle Fletcher and Will Ospreay
* Bryan Danielson vs. Nigel McGuinness
[Ed. Note: This article originally said that the World Championship is on the line, but upon review McGuinness’ promo did not make that clear and AEW has yet to confirm the title is on the line.]
FINALLY! Darby Allin and Jon Moxley meet face to face!
