The heart of the matter
All Elite Wrestling has announced the first match for the premiere episode of AEW on TNT, and it will be AEW exec Cody facing Sammy Guevara in a singles match.
Cody appears to be excited about the match announcement, as he commented on the historic bout by tweeting, "I was excited this was the match selected. To have a young & hungry opponent who has no ceiling when it comes to pro-wrestling. Going forward not backwards."
What's next?
All Elite Wrestling is gearing up for its big All Out PPV, the sequel to the critically acclaimed All In event from 2018.
All Out will take place over Labor Day weekend, and will feature Chris Jericho vs Hangman Page to determine the first-ever AEW Champion, Kenny Omega vs Jon Moxley, The Dark Order vs Best Friends, Joey Janela vs Darby Allin vs Jimmy Havoc in a Triple Threat match, and more.
