The following matches were announced for the November 12 edition of AEW Dynamite that will be held in Greensboro, North Carolina, at First Horizon Coliseum.
-Mercedes Mone, Megan Bayne, Marina Shafir, Thekla, Julia Hart, and Sky Blue vs. Kris Statlander, Toni Storm, Willow Nightingale, Queen Aminata, Jamie Hayter, and Harley Cameron in a Blood & Guts match
-Darby Allin, Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy, Roderick Strong, and Kyle O’Reilly vs. “The Death Riders” Jon Moxley, Pac, Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia, and Claudio Castagnoli in a Blood & Guts match
Powell’s POV: Blood & Guts matches are AEW’s version of WarGames. The entrants for both matches were announced during Saturday’s AEW Collision (check out Don Murphy’s full review of the show via the main page). This will be the first women’s Blood & Guts match. Will the company announce a women’s Continental Classic tournament?

While I know WWE’s version of War Games matches can be tame on the violence, I just can’t help but think AEW will do what they usually do and overdo it on the violence and blood like it’s 1990s ECW or WWE in the attitude era. Especially with the silliness we’ve seen over the last month or so with Moxley and Allin. I’m not knocking people who like AEW. Enjoy what you enjoy. But in my opinion, they just go too far with that stuff.
Prediction:
Roddy turns heel and joins the Death Riders, who win the match.
