#3 MJF faces Brian Pillman Jr. on AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam

MJF will be in action this Wednesday night as he faces AEW's up-and-coming star Brian Pillman Jr.

Mr. Friedman has dragged the entire Pillman family into this storyline. Starting with Brian's pregnant sister to his late father, The Salt of the Earth humiliated him in every possible way to make this rivalry personal.

With Wardlow on his side, The Pinnacle l is expected to pick up a momentum-building victory after Jericho defeated him at All Out. But Brian Pillman Jr. shouldn't be underestimated, given his incredibly sound technique in the ring. It will be a feel-good moment for the crowd if AEW books Brian Pillman Jr. to go over this Wednesday.


#2 Sting and Darby Allin will collide with FTR in a tag team match

Sting and Darby Allin will face Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler in a tag team match on AEW Dynamite. For the fan-favorite duo, their impending bout is more about seeking revenge after the FTR and Tully Blanchard removed their face paint last week.

With Blanchard continuously teasing a singles feud with Sting, fans can expect another confrontation between the two men during or after the match. The face-painted duo has been undefeated so far. It is unlikely that they will come up short this time around. Regardless of the outcome, fans can expect a gruesome encounter between the two teams.


#1 Bryan Danielson will lock horns with AEW World Champion Kenny Omega

Bryan Danielson will make his in-ring debut this Wednesday as he faces Kenny Omega in a non-title match.

Fantasy warfare just got real. Fans have been in a frenzy to see two of the most technically sound wrestlers of this generation collide on the biggest stage of them all.

Both men have to build a compelling storyline around proving who's the best wrestler in the world. With no high-stakes involvement in this match, Bryan could be the company's top pick to close the Grand Slam episode with yes chants.

Will The Elite interfere? Will Don Callis use heel tactics? Will fans get a clean finish to this match? We'll find out this Wednesday.
