One of the annual traditions of AEW Dynamite programming, The Blood and Guts Match is returning, next month. This comes after an official challenge has been laid down by The Elite during the latest episode of Dynamite although there’s no update on who their opponents will be.
The latest bygone episode of AEW Dynamite on Wednesday opened up with The Elite interrupting Swerve Strickland who was in the ring for a promo session. The AEW World Heavyweight Champion was dictating reasons about why his opponent at Forbidden Door, Will Ospreay would come up short against him until he was interrupted by The Elite.

The top heel faction issued a challenge to the AEW locker room to compete against them in a Blood and Guts match, next month on AEW Dynamite. Matthew Jackson of The Young Bucks further told Swerve that they needed a fifth man to fill up their fray and they were willing to recruit Strickland by their side. Swerve rejected the offer, which led to an attack by The Elite. But The Acclaimed and Billy Gunn ran down to make the save.
