Tony Khan boosts first-ever announcement in AEW history 

AEW Full Gear pay-per-view is lurking around the corner with a power-packed match card. This weekend will host the final Collision before the PPV. Tony Khan has pulled out all the stops for the event. A key highlight has been getting the license for rock band Guns N' Roses' iconic song November Rain to promote the event.

Notable AEW names like MJF, Jon Moxley, Swerve Strickland, The Hurt Syndicate, and more are set to compete at the PPV. It will take place at the Prudential Center in New Jersey on November 23. Additionally, a noticeable factor is Bobby Lashley's upcoming in-ring debut on AEW against Strickland.

The promotion has never shied away from being adventurous in getting mainstream music for events. They have several hits under their 'licensed' umbrella to add to the hype for their programs. The All Elite President recently took to X to remind fans of the promotion's first-ever move for Full Gear.

So far, eight matches are included in the match card. On the recent edition of Dynamite, Adam Cole failed to capture a spot for the pay-per-view. Former champion Orange Cassidy is also hell-bent on taking down Jon Moxley for wreaking havoc without repercussions.

Bobby Lashley's first AEW match might be jeopardy

AEW kicked off the month with Bobby Lashley's debut on the promotion. Rumors were running rampant about the multi-time champion joining MVP and Shelton Benjamin after his WWE departure.

Reunited as The Hurt Syndicate, the trio wasted no time in marking their first victim—Swerve Strickland. On the latest episode of Dynamite, they attacked Strickland and his manager, Prince Nana, closing the show to send a statement.

Shortly after, MVP responded to a social media post hinting at not-so-good news for The All Mighty. He pointed out that Lashley's triceps were not 100%. This comes after a mishap during a WWE event in May this year.

Fans are hyped about Lashley's upcoming feud. However, if his physical capabilities prevent him from competing at the PPV, his fellow stablemates are bound to fill in a last-minute replacement.

Swerve Strickland has risen to prominence in recent years, most recently in his savage rivalry with former World Champion Hangman Page. Despite it being barely a couple of weeks into Lashley's debut and the absence of a feud buildup, their Full Gear clash could spark a behemothian rivalry in years to come.
