A new match will debut in AEW and more at WrestleDream 2026.
The fourth iteration of the Antonio Inoki tribute show will be headlined by a Clockwork Carnage match for the AEW World Championship. Will Ospreay will put the title on the line against 7 challengers in a match that will be part gauntlet, part Iron Man. Whoever has the most points when the time expires will be the champion. On the final Dynamite before the pay-per-view, Adam Copeland announced that 2027 would be his final year in wrestling. Cope qualified for the Clockwork Carnage match and is looking to win the World Title one final time before retiring on his own terms.
Jon Moxley will put the Continental Championship on the line against Mark Davis on the show. In the weeks leading up to the event, Davis has had the upper hand with multiple victories over The Deathriders. On the go-home show, Davis pinned Mox.
Other matches announced include a 2-out-of-3 falls match for the Trios Titles, a grudge match between Nick Wayne and Chris Jericho, and a 4-way for the TBS Title.
The show will start at 8 pm Eastern time, which will be 1 am in the UK.
