During Saturday night’s AEW Full Gear Buy-In show, it was announced that Orange Cassidy and a mystery partner will be facing The Butcher and The Blade on Wednesday night’s episode of AEW Dynamite.
During a backstage segment, Cassidy said that he was going to give the Best Friends the night off. The mystery opponent appears to be a member of the New Japan faction CHAOS.
Of course, that seems to indicate that Tomohiro Ishii will be Cassidy’s partner as Tony Khan recently teased it. That is not confirmed as of this writing though.
#AEW GM @TonyKhan has signed #TheButcher & @bladeofbuffalo vs @orangecassidy and a partner of his choice THIS WEDNESDAY on #AEWDynamite, and Orange is giving his #BestFriends partners the night off. So who will be his partner?
