So, AEW Dynamite has set itself a sky-mile bar for their return to El Paso, Texas, this coming Wednesday. With three matches, two championship contests, and the debut of a new women’s tag team, the potential for bangers, and given the location, the ceiling might be blown off by more than just “F### ICE” chants. If you’re someone who doesn’t like politics in your wrestler, well, maybe brush up on the history of the industry.
With The IInspiration making their debut, some fans will be interested in whether this pair of Aussies has the in-ring chops to be successful in AEW. Or if AEW’s philosophical differences will expose them. Against the newly formed, but quickly becoming fan favourites, The Brawling Birds, the chances are we’re going to have a good time.
Plus, plenty of fallout. Where next can the legacy feud between MJF and Hangman Adam Page? Or for the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship after last week’s DQ finish? Hechicero returns from across the border to take on Jon Moxley. El Paso may get to host some more historic moments with the outcomes of both world title matches.
Thekla vs. Thunder Rosa
Recently returning after injury for the first time since All In Texas, Thunder Rosa is in a cursed position. Yet for the woman from the graveyards of Tijuana, Mexico, La Mera Mera isn’t going to care about placement. Being the first title defence has historically been a placeholder. A position previously filled by Nyla Rose as pin-eater. With former champion Kris Statlander still waiting to deliver her cosmic killer karma, some might be looking past Rosa.
Thunder Rosa has slipped down the pecking order over time. The former AEW and NWA Women’s World champion has lacked prominence since vacating the top prize. Perhaps even confidence.
Yet, Rosa’s return against Julia Hart was strong. Her character performance and conviction were not so shaky. As an opportunity, win or lose, Rosa has a chance to assert herself in a strong, dynamic pack of women. It’s do-or-die time. We’re nearly out of the limited spotlight era of AEW’s women’s division.
But, against a champion who is toxic and dangerous and will likely have assistance, the odds are stacked. This match has the potential to be explosive for both women. For sickos, a chance to see what both the new champion and division stalwart can offer.
This Wednesday, 3/4!
With #AEWRevolution just two short weeks away, Wednesday Night #AEWDynamite will be absolutely can't-miss!

AEW World Championship: MJF vs. Kevin Knight
During a rare stop on AEW Collision, MJF’s complaints were met with a challenge from an unexpected individual. Kevin Knight, one-third of Jet Set Rodeo, held his own on the microphone, Big Hebrew. On a roll in 2026, The Jet has been unstoppable. Although MJF agreed to give Knight an AEW World Championship shot, can Knight nail the landing?
Knight might be hot and riding high in the sky. Yet so were Bandido and Brody King. MJF still found a way to prove he was better than them. Has Knight bitten off more than he can chew? Especially how, on Collision, JetSpeed challenged the Don Callis Family.
Guaranteed to be a banger, potential show-stealing contest, there’s still the bigger picture: AEW Revolution. Can things get even more heated between MJF and Hangman Adam Page? Is MJF going to rip the wings off the Jet?
