Get ready for a night of high-octane action and drama as AEW Dynamite pulls out all the stops! But here's where it gets controversial—will these matchups live up to the hype, or are they just setting the stage for future disappointments? Tony Khan has just dropped a bombshell of announcements that’s got the wrestling world buzzing. This week’s Dynamite is stacked with not one, but two brand-new matches, plus a tantalizing Women’s World Championship showdown slated for next week. Let’s break it all down in a way that even newcomers can follow.
First up, Khan took to X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday to reveal that AEW Women’s Tag Team Champions Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron—aka The Babes of Wrath—will face off against Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford in a high-stakes Eliminator match tonight. And this is the part most people miss—if Bayne and Ford emerge victorious, they’ll earn a future title shot, potentially shaking up the tag team division. It’s a classic underdog story, but will the challengers rise to the occasion?
Next, brace yourselves for a trios match that’s practically oozing with intensity. The Death Riders’ Jon Moxley, Daniel Garcia, and PAC will clash with Konosuke Takeshita, Josh Alexander, and El Clon of The Don Callis Family. This isn’t just a match—it’s a collision of styles, personalities, and legacies. Bold prediction: This could be the sleeper hit of the night, but do you think it’ll steal the show?
Adding to the excitement, a mixed tag team match featuring fan favorites Orange Cassidy and Toni Storm has been announced as a potential standby match. While it’s not guaranteed to happen, the mere possibility has fans on the edge of their seats. Controversial take: Is this a strategic move to keep viewers tuned in, or a missed opportunity to give these stars a definitive spotlight?
But wait, there’s more! Kris Statlander has agreed to a rematch against Thekla for the AEW Women’s World Championship on February 11—with a twist. Statlander gets to choose the stipulation, and she’s set to reveal it tonight. This is where it gets intriguing—what stipulation will Statlander pick, and how will it impact the outcome? Will it favor her, or could it backfire?
Here’s the full lineup for tonight’s Dynamite (February 4, 2026):
- Andrade El Idolo vs. Kenny Omega
- AEW World Champion MJF vs. Brody King in an Eliminator match
- AEW National Champion Ricochet defends against Jack Perry
