Eight-man tag team match with CMLL stars announced for AEW Rampage
After making their presence felt on Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite, four of CMLL’s top stars will compete in an eight-man tag team match as part of this Friday’s AEW Rampage.
Mistico, Volador Jr, Mascara Dorada & Hechicero will take on Matt Menard, Angelo Parker, Matt Sydal & Christopher Daniels.
Initially seated at ringside, the CMLL wrestlers attacked Jon Moxley after his win over Jeff Hardy to open Dynamite, beating down the former AEW World Champion in a four-on-one attack before their eventual Friday opponents ran down to help out.
Hechicero is scheduled to face Moxley’s Blackpool Combat Club teammate Bryan Danielson on Saturday’s Collision while a trios match between the BCC and CMLL wrestlers will take place next Wednesday.
Friday’s show will also feature AEW Tag Team Champions Ricky Starks & Big Bill in non-title action against Dark Order’s Alex Reynolds & John Silver. Starks & Bill will defend against Sting & Darby Allin on next Wednesday’s Dynamite.
In singles action, Willow Nightingale will take on Queen Aminata, who has been a frequent competitor on both AEW and ROH TV as of late. Aminata is 0-15 all-time in AEW while Nightingale is 3-1 in her last four.
AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy and Best Friends (Chuck Taylor & Trent Beretta) will also be on hand to share some thoughts.
The new additions join the previously announced Private Party vs. Top Flight rematch.
Here’s the full lineup for Friday:
- AEW Tag Team Champions Ricky Starks & Big Bill vs. Dark Order (John Silver & Alex Reynolds) in a non-title match
