MVP will once again return to the ring, and for the first time in AEW, as part of this Wednesday’s Maximum Carnage edition of Dynamite.

He will join fellow Hurt Syndicate members Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin against AEW Tag Team Champions Private Party and Mark Briscoe.

Lashley defeated Briscoe this past Wednesday after insulting Private Party on his way to the ring. As the Hurt Syndicate attacked Briscoe after the match, the champions then ran out to make the save.

It will be the 51-year-old’s first match in AEW and just his third overall in the last two-plus years. He’s a former two-time WWE United States Champion, former WWE Tag Team Champion, and former IWGP Intercontinental Champion.

Here’s the current lineup for this Wednesday in Cincinnatti, Ohio:

  • Hurt Syndicate (MVP, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin) vs. Mark Briscoe and AEW Tag Team Champion Private Party (Quen & Zay)
  • AEW World Champion Jon Moxley defends against Powerhouse Hobbs
  • Casino women’s gauntlet match for Women’s World title shot at February’s Grand Slam Australia
  • Kenny Omega vs. Brian Cage
  • Christian Cage vs. Hook
