Swerve Strickland vs. Wheeler Yuta, Britt Baker in-person return set for next AEW Dynamite
After Bryan Danielson was successful in defeating Jeff Jarrett in the main event of Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite, Swerve Strickland said he wanted his own tune-up for next Wednesday ahead of their title vs. career clash at All In.
After Danielson’s win, the AEW World Champion came out unannounced to give the impending challenger his props and then offer up a challenge to Danielson’s Blackpool Combat Club teammate Wheeler Yuta who was standing next to him.
Strickland said he wants Danielson at ringside as well so he can see why he is the most dangerous man in AEW.
After making her on-screen return on Wednesday following a suspension, Britt Baker promised Mercedes Mone she will be in Norfolk, Virginia, and has seven days to figure out how she will get her hands on her.
The other announcement was that AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada and no. 1 contender Claudio Castagnoli will come face-to-face. Castagnoli won a three-way on Collision to earn a shot at Okada with the date yet to be announced.
Here’s the current lineup for Norfolk:
- AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland vs. Wheeler Yuta in a non-title match
- Britt Baker appearance
- Claudio Castagnoli and Kazuchika Okada face-to-face
