A title match and more will take place on the milestone 300th episode of AEW Dynamite.
On the June 25 Dynamite, Kota Ibushi made his return to an AEW ring for the first time in over a year and defeated Trent Beretta. After the match, Ibushi was confronted by Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada, who had previously brawled with Ibushi when he returned on Collision. Later in the show, it was announced that Ibushi would face Okada on the July 2 Dynamite. Both men previously faced off in the 2021 G1 Climax tournament, which ended via referee stoppage when Ibushi suffered a shoulder injury.
The opening segment of last week’s Dynamite saw TBS Champion Mercedes Mone brawl with Women’s Champion Toni Storm until Mina Shirakawa made the save. It was later announced that Shirakawa will challenge Mone for the title on the next episode of Dynamite. Mone and Shirakawa have a history with each other as Mone defeated Shirakawa at the start of the year to capture the Undisputed British Women’s Championship, the top women’s title in British promotion RevPro.
