On October 1st, the AEW WrestleDream PPV will take place, which will be a tribute show to Antonio Inoki on his one-year death anniversary.
On last night’s episode of AEW Collision, a promo aired for this upcoming PPV, where AEW President Tony Khan said the following:
“Next Sunday, October 1st, it’ll be one of the greatest nights in wrestling, with every match capable of stealing the show and a card befitting the legacy of a kingdom that has touched every one of us.
AEW and the world of pro wrestling will converge as the greatest champions and rivalries in this sport will take center stage live on pay-per-view.
At AEW WrestleDream next Sunday, we will pay tribute to the dreamer that made this all possible, the late great Antonio Inoki, with an event one year in the making.
You won’t want to miss AEW WrestleDream as we’ll end a chapter in wrestling history and begin a new era in AEW live on pay-per-view next Sunday night, October 1.”
