Tonight’s the final event for Winter is Coming!
Kazuchika Okada suffered a shocking loss to Kyle Fletcher last week. The Continental Champion is looking to bounce back after a rare defeat, but facing The Beast Mortos will not be an easy task. Kazuchika Okada gets back into the game by beating The Beast Mortos? Or was his loss to Kyle Fletcher the beginning of a losing streak?
Speaking of Kyle Fletcher, the undefeated star is scheduled to fight former ROH World Champion Mark Briscoe. There was some concern that Briscoe would be in the bottom pool again after he lost his first two matches in the tournament, but Mark pulled out a surprising win over TNT Champion Daniel Garcia. Can he dig deep again and beat Kyle Fletcher? He’s been on a massive tear since his win over Will Ospreay at Full Gear.
In a highly anticipated women’s match, Willow Nightingale and Jamie Hayter will face each other for the first time in AEW. The match is a qualifier for the international women’s cup. The former AEW Women’s Champion has been slowly rising in the ranks thanks to her wins over Saraya and Penelope Ford, but Willow's star has shined bright in 2024. The former TBS Champion looks to add another feather in her cap; will Jamie Hayter stand in her way to get it.
