Wardlow will defend the TNT Championship on the October 5 episode of AEW Dynamite.
In a tweet on October 3, “Mr. Mayhem” issued an open challenge for the title, daring someone “remotely close” to his level to step up.
AEW subsequently announced that Brian Cage had stepped up, so he will challenge for the gold on Wednesday, which marks the three-year anniversary of AEW Dynamite. This bout will mark Cage’s first singles match on AEW TV since October 2021. He recently competed in the Grand Slam Battle Royale on AEW Rampage. He also competed in a singles match on the September 3 episode of AEW Dark: Elevation.
Wardlow won the gold on the July 6 episode of AEW Dynamite, where he defeated Scorpio Sky.
