AEW announced two new matches for Wednesday’s Dynamite on Monday afternoon.
On Twitter, Tony Khan revealed that Jon Moxley vs. Konosuke Takeshita would take place, but would not be for Moxley’s AEW World Championship. If Takeshita wins, he will receive a World Championship match at a later date.

AEW Interim World Champion @JonMoxley wants to fight Takeshita on #AEWDynamite!
While I won’t sanction it as a title match since Eddie won Friday’s bout,
if Takeshita wins Wednesday on TBS vs Mox then he earns a future title shot! pic.twitter.com/SeK9eNBKk4— Tony Khan (@TonyKhan) July 11, 2022
