Jon Moxley will face Wheeler Yuta on AEW Dynamite this Saturday after the company announced the match during Friday's Rampage.

This will be the former AEW World Champion's first match since fighting Nick Gage in a brutal death match on GCW Fight Club.

Jon Moxley defended the GCW World Championship against Gage in an anything goes deathmatch on October 9. WWE Hall of Famer and Hardcore legend Mick Foley was the special announcer for the match.

At the very beginning of the match, the MDK gang leader broke a bunch of light tubes on the Lunatic Fringe's head. After several ultra-violent spots and a lot of blood spills, Jon Moxley retained the title.

Jon Moxley's condition and ability to compete with a younger and fresher opponent in Wheeler Yuta will be an interesting sub-plot to follow on Saturday.
