Former WWE Stars Set For AEW Dynamite Debut

AEW

Two former WWE stars and ROH regulars are set for their AEW Dynamite debuts next week.

Back at ROH Supercard of Honor, the Embassy successfully retained their ROH World Trios Championship against the trio of AR Fox, Metalik and Blake Christian.

In recent weeks, AEW’s own Trios Champions, the House of Black, have issued “House Rules” open challenges, most recently defending the titles against Bandido and the Best Friends.

On next week’s AEW Dynamite, it has been announced that the House of Black will defend their titles against the Trio of Fox, Metalik and Christian.

Both Metalik and Christian have appeared on ROH and AEW Dark since their respective WWE releases, but next week will mark the first time both men have wrestled on Dynamite.

That isn’t the only Championship bout announced for the show, as Orange Cassidy will defend his AEW International Championship against NJPW star Kyle Fletcher.

Another debut will take place on next week’s Dynamite, as Lady Frost faces off against Taya Valkyrie.

Here are the results from the May 17 episode of AEW Dynamite:
