At Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite event held at the Don Haskins Center in El Paso, Texas, New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) star David Finlay made an unexpected appearance. After Orange Cassidy and Darby Allin secured a victory against The Dogs — Gabe Kidd and Clark Connors — Finlay suddenly attacked Cassidy and Allin from behind.

This assault escalated as Kidd and Connors joined Finlay, resulting in all three laying out their opponents. The group then posed together, signaling Finlay’s reunion with his War Dogs allies from NJPW, marking a notable shift in AEW storylines and alliances.

The IInspiration Debuts on Dynamite but Fall to The Brawling Birds

Wednesday’s show also featured The IInspiration, composed of Jessie McKay and Cassie Lee, making their official in-ring debut on the Dynamite brand. They faced off in a tag team match against The Brawling Birds — Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor.

The match was quickly dominated by The Brawling Birds, who secured a convincing victory in a one-sided contest. This contest marked The IInspiration’s second AEW match, following their debut at February’s Grand Slam Australia 2026 event, extending The Brawling Birds’ undefeated streak in AEW.

Brody King and Swerve Strickland to Clash at AEW Revolution 2026

AEW Dynamite also announced a new match booked for Revolution 2026, scheduled for March 15th at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California. The bout will feature Brody King taking on Swerve Strickland in a singles match.

The rivalry stems from recent tensions and challenges exchanged between King and Strickland over their reputations. During Wednesday’s show, King issued a direct challenge to Strickland in the ring, which led to Prince Nana’s involvement. Nana summoned Strickland, who appeared from the crowd rather than the entrance, surprising King by attacking him with a chain and choking him with a rope-bound chain.

Following the attack, Strickland accepted King’s challenge, officially confirming the match for the Revolution card.

Don Callis Family Secures Their First AEW World Trios Championship
