AEW continues to fill out the card for this week’s episode of Dynamite.
On Tuesday, the promotion announced that Christian Cage will face Angelico on the show. “Big Money” Matt Hardy paid Angelico to “delete” Cage from AEW, and AEW General Manager Tony Khan booked the match for Friday night.

Plus, Nyla Rose will be in action; the former AEW World Women’s Champion will face Leyla Hirsch. Rose is currently the third-ranked competitor in the women’s division, so she’ll have the chance to climb the ladder with a win. Rose is ranked fifth, so she could move up with a victory, too.
This week on #AEWDynamite, it’ll be a battle of top contenders when #3 ranked @NylaRoseBeast (w/ @VickieGuerrero in her corner) battles #5 ranked @LegitLeyla in a match with major rankings implications!
