AEW Dynamite IGNITE for 8/25/21
Jamie Hayter vs. Red Velvet
After losing to Britt Baker on the debut episode of AEW Rampage, Red Velvet was quickly attacked by Baker. Kris Statlander came to assist Red Velvet and the tables seemed to finally turn. That is until Jamie Hayter, a long time friend of Baker, made her return to save her friend.
On Wednesday night, Red Velvet can get some revenge on Hayter. Can she overpower her taller and stronger opponent? We know Britt Baker will be watching this match really closely as well.
Malakai Black vs. Brock Anderson (w/Arn Anderson)
Malakai Black made his shocking debut in AEW on July 7. On that debut appearance, he kicked the legendary Arn Anderson. His son, Brock Anderson has now challenged Black to a match on this week’s AEW Dynamite in hopes of getting some revenge.
Brock has had limited match experience in AEW. Malakai Black is coming off a brutal squash match victory over Cody Rhodes. It seems Brock is placing himself in a very dangerous situation on Wednesday night.
Orange Cassidy vs. Matt Hardy
The Hardy Family Office has set their sights on Orange Cassidy and the rest of the Best Friends in recent weeks. Hardy and his Family Office recently won a huge six man tag team match against Cassidy, Taylor and Yuta. On Wednesday night, Hardy himself will fight Orange Cassidy in a huge singles match.
Can the veteran Hardy handle Cassidy on Wednesday night? Hardy has surely seen a lot in his thirty year career but dealing with Orange is a different equation altogether. Can Matt Hardy handle the laziest man in pro wrestling on AEW Dynamite? It will be fun to find out.

Varsity Blonds vs. Lucha Brothers
(AEW World Tag Team Championship Eliminator Tournament Semifinal)
On last week’s AEW Dynamite, it was announced that a four team tournament would begin to determine the newest number one contender for the AEW World Tag Team Championship. The winner of the mini-tournament will fight the Young Bucks in a Steel Cage for the title at AEW All Out. The stakes couldn’t be higher for this second semifinal.
The Lucha Brothers have had some memorable matches in the past against the Young Bucks. But they haven’t had a shot for the titles in a long, long time. Can they get back on track against the Varsity Blonds on Wednesday night?
The Varsity Blonds have had a lot of success in the tag division. But most of those victories have been on AEW Dark and AEW Dark: Elevation. On this massive stage, can they overcome the veteran tag team? It will be fun to find out in this exciting tag team match in Milwaukee.
