Will Ospreay vs. MJF Made Official For Major AEW Show
There were rumours about AEW stacking its 250th edition of Dynamite and those have proved to be true as Will Ospreay is set to face MJF.
When Dynamite emanates from Little Rock, Arkansas on the 17th of July, AEW will celebrate the 250th edition of its flagship show.
Speaking recently on Beyond The Bell, Andrew Zarian noted that he’d heard AEW is planning a pay-per-view level main event for the special 250th episode of Dynamite on July 17th:
I was told that there is a mega main event for that show. Again, I have no idea. It could be bullsh*t. It could change. I don’t know. When you quote me on this, you could say Andrew Zarian said this: ‘Could be bullsh*t. It could change. I don’t know.’
But I was told that show will have a huge main event…..I was told that they’re going to have a huge pay-per-view level main event. That’s how it was said to me. Okay, so I don’t know what that means. I don’t know who it could be. I don’t know if it’s something else. I don’t know.
Now it seems it’s not just the main event AEW is stacking for that landmark show.
Will Ospreay vs. MJF Set For AEW Dynamite
On the 10th of July edition of Dynamite, the show began with Will Ospreay addressing MJF after the former AEW World Champion showed his true colours, attacking Daniel Garcia and verbally dissecting Ospreay. Ospreay answered many of MJF’s remarks before The Salt of the Earth appeared via video and challenged the English star for his International Title on the 250th edition of Dynamite and that match – that many expected to see in Wembley Stadium at All In – will open the show.
The special Dynamite will also see AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland face Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada one week before those two men lead their respective sides into the brutal Blood & Guts match.
TBS Champion Mercedes Mone will also be in action on the 250th edition of Dynamite as she issued an open challenge for her AEW title. That challenge is open to anyone on the AEW roster except Britt Baker.
