Former WWE Star To Debut On Tonight's AEW Dynamite
AEW President Tony Khan made an appearance on Wrestling Observer Live where he revealed FTR's opponents tonight for the AAA World Tag Team Titles. Khan revealed that FTR will take on Aerostar and Samuray del Sol, f.k.a. Kalisto in WWE.
del Sol was released from WWE this past April.
On AEW Dark, FTR issued out an open challenge for their AAA World Tag Team Titles. However, The Lucha Brothers are not allowed to challenge for the titles because FTR are 2-0 against them.
FTR talked about their desire to take on other luchador tag teams to prove they are the best luchador tag team. Khan said on WOL that he looked for that team in Aerostar and Samuray del Sol. Samuray del Sol was released by WWE back in April, and this will be his first match since the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal on SmackDown in April 1.
Aerostar and Samuray del Sol have teamed together before in AAA. In 2012, they teamed up with Rey Fenix to take on Los Inferno Rocker back in April 2012.
