Tonight on Dynamite, AEW announced how the Women’s AEW Eliminator tournament would work and who would be in the tournament. Half the tournament will take place in Japan and the other half will be held in the US.
The winner will get a title shot against Hikaru Shida. The tournament looks to be a great way to launch a few stories surrounding the women in AEW.
