Shelton Benjamin vs. The Beast Mortos added to AEW Dynamite Holiday Bash

Another Continental Classic match is set for Dynamite Holiday Bash.

During Rampage, it was announced that Blue League action would be taking place next Wednesday when Shelton Benjamin faces The Beast Mortos. Benjamin so far has three points, losing to Kyle Fletcher on last week’s Dynamite. After the loss, MVP told Benjamin that he was disappointed in him, leading to Benjamin taking out his frustrations on a backstage assistant.

Mortos, meanwhile, has yet to earn any points in the tournament thus far. Only Komander in the Gold League shares that distinction.

Kyle Fletcher currently leads the Blue League with nine points. In the Gold League, there is currently a three-way tie between Will Ospreay, Claudio Castagnoli, and Ricochet.

Here is the updated Dynamite Holiday Bash lineup:
