The Bunny will lock horns with Leyla Hirsch in the upcoming episode of AEW Dynamite. There's an added stipulation to their bout as the winner will get a shot at the NWA Women's Championship.

The Bunny is heavily favored to win this match, given Leyla Hirsch's lack of experience in the wrestling business. So far, she has only competed in a handful of singles matches against top-notch women athletes like Hikaru Shida, Serena Deeb, and Thunder Rosa, to name a few. But she could change her fortune by pulling off an upset victory over The Bunny this Wednesday.

It remains to be seen who gets a ticket to face Kamille for the NWA Championship down the road.

In the Homecoming edition of AEW Dynamite, Chris Jericho will meet his third labor in his arch-rival Juventud Guerrera. There's an interesting stipulation imposed on Chris Jericho as he could only win this match through a top rope maneuver.

Last week, The Demo God overcame perhaps the toughest challenger of his career by defeating Nick Gage in a no disqualification match that saw barbarity at its peak. Following the bout, MJF dropped another bombshell by announcing the arrival of Juventud Guerrera in Jacksonville.

If we turn back the clock, Jericho and Juventud have shared a long history during their days in WCW.

Both men have fought numerous battles over the years, with their Mask vs. Title match being the best they ever delivered during their feud. Chris Jericho won the match, which promoted Juventud to take out his mask and wrestle without it for years.

Mexican Luchador will be returning to TNT programming for the first time in 15 years to renew a decade-old rivalry with Chris Jericho. It remains to be seen who will have the last laugh to close the final chapter of their long-running feud in history.

A win over Juventud would bring Chris Jericho closer to facing AEW star MJF. This will be the most intriguing match on this week's show.
