Several Additional Matches and Segments Revealed for July 16 AEW Dynamite

AEW just turned up the heat for tonight’s episode of Dynamite. What was already shaping up to be a packed show now features even more big names, in-ring action, and live segments—capping off one of the busiest weeks since AEW All In: Texas.

One of the marquee attractions is the $100,000 Four-Way Fight featuring Willow Nightingale, Kris Statlander, Thekla, and Queen Aminata. All four women clashed in the Women’s Casino Gauntlet at All In, and now they’re back for a chance at redemption and a serious payday.

The match comes with personal tension. Willow and Statlander went from tight allies to bitter rivals after Statlander’s betrayal, and they wasted no time going at it during the gauntlet. Meanwhile, Thekla and Queen Aminata have their own score to settle—Thekla got the win over Aminata at Collision: Summer Blockbuster, and things haven’t cooled off since. Tony Khan confirmed the four-way fight on social media:

That’s not all. Kazuchika Okada will also be in action for the first time since making history as the inaugural AEW Unified Champion at All In: Texas.

Adam Copeland is scheduled to speak live for the first time since his return. His reappearance at All In sent shockwaves through the arena, and fans are eager to hear what’s next for the Rated R Superstar.

Also set for the night is a chaotic 8-man tag team match. ROH World Champion Bandido will team with Brody King, Jet2Fly, and Speedball Mike Bailey to face the team of Josh Alexander, Rey Hechicero, and The Young Bucks. This all-star collision was made after Hechicero confronted Bandido at ROH Supercard, setting up tonight’s clash.
