Battling “The Bastard”
PAC has been a dominant All-Atlantic Champion, traveling the globe, defending the title, and overcoming all challengers. Unfortunately, his win against Orange Cassidy back at Grand Slam raised a lot of questions regarding the lengths PAC will take to keep the title around his waist.
It’s no secret the disdain and long-storied history that “The Bastard” and Cassidy share. However, nobody ever thought that PAC would use a literal hammer to strike down Cassidy in their All-Atlantic Championship Match, putting the “King of Sloth Style” out of commission.
Best Friends member and close personal confidant of Orange Cassidy, Trent Beretta has taken exception to the dubious circumstances in which PAC beat his friend. Trent laid down the gauntlet and PAC accepted. For Trent, this is more than just a championship match. Beretta will be out for blood on his way to securing his first taste of hardware in the #AllElite promotion. Will Trent Beretta avenge Orange Cassidy and become the All-Atlantic Champion? Or will PAC find a way to slay the Best Friend member?
“Top Guys” Trek the Gates
On this week’s AEW Dynamite, “The Machine” Brian Cage and Wardlow tore the house down with the TNT Championship on the line. However, once the dust settled, “The War Dog” came out victorious with the gold still firmly in his grasp.
In the immediate aftermath of that monumental bout, the Gates of Agony would retaliate on behalf of Cage and beat down the TNT Champion. Fortunately for Wardlow, a couple of “Top Guys” in the form of FTR had his back and drove off the wolves. That confrontation leads us to this Friday night. One of the absolute best tag teams in the world. Faces off against one of the brightest and most impressive tag teams in the business. Who will come out on top? Do not miss this monumental tag team war for the ROH World Tag Team Championship; it’s FTR versus the Gates of Agony! It all goes down on AEW Battle of the Belts IV this Friday night only on TNT!

Battle of The Belts 4 is set to start IMMEDIATELY after AEW Rampage on October 7, 2022, meaning any fans in Europe hoping to watch live will have a very late night ahead of them with a 4am start time.
