Ricky Starks vs. Wheeler Yuta Announced for AEW WrestleDream

Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite show in Broomfield, Colorado featured one new match officially announced for the card of AEW WrestleDream, which takes place on October 1st at the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Washington.

This new match announced is a singles match of Ricky Starks vs. Wheeler Yuta.

This match was setup following a taped backstage segment after this past Saturday’s AEW Collision show involving Starks, Big Bill, and Yuta. Starks reflected about his Texas Death Match against Danielson on the show and claiming that he is still better than Danielson because he did submit despite his loss. Yuta then showed up and interrupted saying that Starks just likes to always moans and complains. Yuta then challenged Starks to a match at WrestleDream. Following the segment, AEW announcer Excalibur stated that the match was made official for the event.

Adam Cole Pulled from WrestleDream Over Ankle Injury, Updated Card for WrestleDream

Wednesday’s Dynamite show in Broomfield also featured the official announcement of Adam Cole being pulled from AEW’s WrestleDream and one updated match for the event.

During an in-ring promo, Cole addressed his injury situation from last week’s Dynamite Grand Slam 2023 show in regards to the ankle-related injury he suffered. Cole revealed that his ankle was revealed to have been shattered in three different places and as a result he will not be able to compete at this Sunday’s WrestleDream event.

Cole then stated that as a result of his injury, him and MJF would also be relinquishing their ROH World Tag Team titles which led to MJF interrupting stating that would not be necessary since he will defend their tag titles in a Handicap match against The Righteous at the event instead.
