AEW is heading south of the border for Grand Slam: Mexico, and two of its biggest international stars are locked in for major matches.
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Will Ospreay and AEW International Champion Kenny Omega will both be featured in marquee bouts at the upcoming crossover event with CMLL but not against each other.
The expectation is that theres going to be a big match involving Will Ospreay and Kenny Omega, not against each other, but on that show because those are the two guys that I think the fans at Arena Mexico are looking forward to seeing the most, Meltzer said.
While AEW has yet to confirm specific opponents, both Omega and Ospreay are heavily promoted in the advertising for the June 18 event. With Arena Mexicos rich wrestling history, the venue is expected to deliver an electric atmosphere, especially with two of AEWs most dynamic talents set to compete.
AEW x CMLL Grand Slam: Mexico will air live as a special edition of AEW Dynamite on TBS, with a simultaneous stream available on Max. Fans will be watching closely to see how Omega and Ospreay are booked, as both men are considered major draws for the Mexican audience.
