Finals set for AEW Grand Slam World title eliminator tournament

The finals for the AEW Grand Slam World title eliminator tournament are now set.

Roderick Strong will face Samoa Joe in the finals that take place this coming Wednesday on Dynamite. The winner of this match will then advance to AEW Grand Slam on September 20, where they will face MJF for the AEW World Championship.

Saturday’s Collision saw Strong defeat Darby Allin. Distractions from AR Fox and Nick Wayne, who are not on the same page, caused Allin to become distracted and ultimately lose the match after Strong connected with the end of heartache. Samoa Joe defeated Penta El 0 M after Penta went for the fear factor, but Joe countered with the coquina clutch for the submission.

Additionally, Big Bill will challenge Jon Moxley for the AEW International title this Wednesday. Ricky Starks confronted Bryan Danielson on Saturday, with things still unresolved between the two following their strap match at All Out. Big Bill ended up attacking Danielson. However, Jon Moxley came out to even the odds. Regardless, the segment ended with both Starks and Bill standing tall.

Here is everything announced so far for next week’s Dynamite:

  • Grand Slam World Title eliminator tournament finals: Roderick Strong vs. Samoa Joe
  • AEW International title: Jon Moxley defends against Big Bill
  • 4-way Women’s title eliminator match: Britt Baker vs. Hikaru Shida vs. Nyla Rose vs. Toni Storm
  • Hangman Page vs. Brian Cage
  • Don Callis to reveal his next masterpiece
