The full field for the upcoming AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament has been revealed with the winner earning a title shot at Winter Is Coming.

The tournament is the third AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament in as many years and incredibly is the sixteenth tournament of some form or other held in the near four-year existence of All Elite Wrestling.

At Full Gear, Jon Moxley will put his AEW World Championship on the line against MJF, who has cashed his Casino Ladder Match chip in for his title shot. Whoever wins that match won’t have long to celebrate however as their next challenger will be decided at the pay-per-view as well with the Title Eliminator Tournament coming to its conclusion there.

Now the full field for the tournament has been revealed with the first match taking place on the 9th of November edition of Dynamite. That’s where Eddie Kingston will take on Ethan Page of The Firm. The other three quarter-final matches will take place on the following Rampage where Bandido faces RUSH, Lance Archer returns to take on Ricky Starks, and Brian Cage lines up against Dante Martin.

Winter Is Coming will be a special edition of Dynamite held in Garland, Texas on the 14th of December. In 2020 the show was where Kenny Omega defeated Jon Moxley after Omega had won that year’s AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament and became AEW Champion for the very first time.
