The Rubber Match between Red Velvet and Leyla Hirsch has been announced for tomorrow's AEW Dynamite on TBS.

"Following their excellent match last week on Rampage, the Red Velvet/Leyla Hirsch rivalry is even at 1-1; we'll see the rubber match in their trilogy tomorrow on #AEWDynamite on @TBSNetwork @ 8pm ET/7pm CT @Thee_Red_Velvet vs @LegitLeyla, + Kris Statlander is banned from ringside," Khan wrote.

Hirsch defeated Velvet back at the Beach Break edition of AEW Dynamite on January 26, but Velvet got the win back on last week's AEW Rampage, thanks to an assist by Statlander. Hirsch and Statlander are also at 1-1 in their singles feud as Statlander defeated Hirsch in late December at the Holiday Bash edition of AEW Rampage, while Hirsch got the win back at AEW Revolution.

Stay tuned for more on this week's AEW Dynamite from the HEB Center in Cedar Park, Texas. Below is the updated line-up, along with Khan's full tweet:
