Preview & Predictions for AEW Dynamite:
On tap for tonight's episode, Mark Briscoe and Maxwell Jacob Friedman will announce their picks for who will be on their teams for the steel cage match at Forbidden Door. They will also face each other in a 12-man tag team match, which is strange to go ahead and do something right before doing what is likely to be the same match but inside a cage. It'll be interesting to see how (more so if) Tony Khan is able to preserve the excitement instead of just rinsing and repeating. There are enough people within The Conglomeration and The Don Callis Family to fill out the ranks, but since this is Forbidden Door, it makes sense to have some focus on people like Tomohiro Ishii from New Japan, some CMLL folk in there (maybe Mistico?) and so on to try to appeal more to the event's gimmick, rather than for this to just all be made up of the same names we see every week.
There will be a semifinal match in the women's bracket for the Owen Hart Foundation tournament with Mercedes Mone and Hazuki facing off. It's hard to imagine Mercedes losing this, so I'm going with her.
To help set up some more hype for the men's bracket of the Owen Hart Cup, Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland will have a face-to-face, wherein I'm sure they'll talk about their previous respect for each other and how that's all out the window now and how each of them needs to win the tournament and so forth.
