#2. Hopefully true: Sting and Darby Allin vs. Matt Hardy and Andrade was originally set for AEW Revolution

AEW's Revolution pay-per-view is shaping up to be the company's most highly-anticipated event of the year. Several marquee matches have already been lined up to take place on March 6. However, one match wasn't initially scheduled for the show.

Fightful Select recently reported that the Tornado Trios match pitting Sting, Darby Allin, and Sammy Guevara against Matt Hardy, Andrade, and Isiah Kassidy was supposed to be a two-on-one tag team affair, leaving Guevara and Kassidy out of the mix. As of this writing, it is still unknown why the company changed the plan.

We hope this is true because while Guevara and Kassidy appear to be third wheels in this storyline, there's another level of hype for the impending trios match between these two teams, especially with the company adding an intriguing stipulation to the bout.


#1. Hopefully true: Rey Fenix's absence is likely to scrap plans for AEW Revolution

Rey Fenix has been out of action since the January 5th episode of Dynamite, where he suffered an arm injury during Lucha Bros' unsuccessful tag team title defense against Jurassic Express.

Dave Meltzer recently reported that had Fenix been cleared to wrestle, Death Triangle vs. The House of Black could have gone down at Revolution pay-per-view:

“Also, if he’s ready, I think they might end up doing Pentagon, Fenix, and PAC against Black, Brody King, and Buddy Matthews. I don’t know..that may be a little bit later because I was told that Fenix still has three weeks, and three weeks is kinda missing March 6. But who knows? It’s wrestlers, it’s Rey Fenix and he’s crazy. Maybe he’ll make it and maybe that match will be on there as well.” (H/T- WrestlingNews.co )

We hope this rumor turns out to be true. With the recent arrival of Buddy Matthews in AEW, it makes sense from a logical booking standpoint to go with a rubber match between Death Triangle and House of Black down the road.

We hope the company sticks to their reported plans whenever Fenix returns from his injury.
