AEW has announced another match for Night One of AEW Fyter Fest as Sammy Guevara will take on Wheeler Yuta. This will be the Inner Circle member's first match since his incredible performance against MJF on the June 30th edition of Dynamite.

Wheeler Yuta has been featured on AEW Dark and AEW Dark: Elevation, winning twice. The talented 24-year old is touted to be one of the next big things in wrestling.

His exploits have landed him dates in various major independent companies like Beyond Wrestling, CZW, and CHIKARA as well appearances in Major League Wrestling and NJPW Strong.

He is currently the IWTV Independent Wrestling Champion. His advertised match at Fyter Fest is the culmination of a number of impressive performances across all the companies he's appeared for and now Yuta has a huge opportunity to impress against one of AEW's top stars.

Even though it's extremely unlikely Yuta wins, a great performance here could land him a permanent contract with AEW.
