With all 4 teams finally set for the Men’s and Women’s Blood & Guts matches next Wednesday on “AEW Dynamite,” the one thing left to find out is the person and woman’s advantage for the respective matches. It has been a staple of the WarGames match, and its variations, because the dawn of time, and previously has largely been decided by a coin flip, a coin flip the heels have generally won.
But AEW owner Tony Khan won’t be flipping any coins to find out who has the sting next week. As an alternative, he took to X on Tuesday afternoon, using two posts to announce the Blood & Guts Advantage Battle. This latest competition will feature a Better of Three series of singles matches between members of the Men and Women’s Blood & Guts teams, with the matches happening over the course of “Dynamite” and “AEW Collision” this week. The winning teams will thus get the person or woman’s advantage.
On the lads’s side, the festivities will kick off on “Dynamite” in a battle of former CHIKARA stars, as Orange Cassidy will battle Claudio Castagnoli, with the second match between Darby Allin and Daniel Garcia to happen later within the show. Should a 3rd and deciding match be needed, it’s going to happen on “Collision,” and have Death Riders leader Jon Moxley facing Roderick Strong, in a rematch from the September 17 episode of “Dynamite.”
Meanwhile, “Dynamite” may even feature the beginning of the ladies’s side, with Queen Aminata going up against Megan Bayne, a tall task for Aminata given Bayne has only lost one match in AEW since joining the promotion in January. The ultimate two matches within the Advantage Battle might be on “Collision,” with Jamie Hayter facing Skye Blue, while the potential third match would see Harley Cameron battle Thekla.
