Welcome to Wrestling INC.'s live coverage of "AEW Dynamite" for March 27, 2024, live from Le Centre Vidéotron in Québec City!
Tonight is all about becoming a contender, but it's also dream matches, as a pair top AEW stars will face off against two of Japan's best. Will Ospreay takes on Katsuyori Shibata, a match conceived as part of Ospreay's ongoing rivalry with Bryan Danielson, while Swerve Strickland battles "The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita of the Don Callis Family. With new rankings about to drop, AEW CEO Tony Khan has intimated that Strickland vs. Takeshita is a de facto No. 1 Contender's match for Samoa Joe's world championship.
