Tony Khan makes a blockbuster announcement ahead of AEW Dynamite

Ahead of this week's episode of AEW Dynamite happening, Tony Khan has just made a big announcement regarding a first-time-ever trios match. This will feature the Blackpool Combat Club taking on Los Ingobernables de Japon.

This bout will highlight two major Forbidden Door matches. Jon Moxley will be taking on LIJ, the faction of his opponent at the pay-per-view Tetsuya Naito. He'll look to make an example out of his stablemates. One of the members of the faction is Shingo Takagi, who Mox's comrade in the BCC, Bryan Danielson, will be facing at the event as part of the Owen Hart Cup.

Jon Moxley, Claudio Catagnoli, and Wheeler Yuta of the BCC will take on LIJ's Shingo Takagi, Titan, and Hiromu Takahashi tomorrow. Bryan Danielson will also be available for commentary. Among the stars present, it will only be Takahashi who will be making his AEW in-ring debut. It also remains to be seen if the stable's leader, Tetsuya Naito, makes a surprise appearance.

"TOMORROW, Wed 6/26 Buffalo, NY TBS, 8pm ET/7pm CT Wednesday Night #AEWDynamite BCC @JonMoxley @ClaudioCSRO @WheelerYuta vs LIJ @Takagi__Shingo @Titan_cmll @TIMEBOMB1105" On the last Dynamite before Forbidden Door BCC fights LIJ with @bryandanielson on commentary on TBS TOMORROW!" Khan tweeted.
