AEW Rampage will deliver two buzzworthy bouts when the show airs at a special start time of 7 p.m. EST on February 18.
First, New Japan Pro-Wrestling star Jay White will wrestle in an AEW ring for the first time; “Switchblade” will face Trent Beretta in a singles match. The former IWGP Heavyweight Champion stepped through the Forbidden Door on the February 10 episode of AEW Dynamite and helped the Superkliq attack Best Friends. On the following episode of Rampage, he attacked Beretta. The two stars will officially clash next Friday.
