Updated AEW Full Gear 2022 card after Dynamite: The Elite returns, former WWE star challenges for major title
Full Gear 2022 is shaping up to be an incredible pay-per-view event. The November 19 event will cap off what has been a tremendous year for AEW in terms of pay-per-views. U.S. and international fans can live stream the event on Bleacher Report and Fight TV, respectively. For AEW’s fanbase in India, the show will stream live on Discovery Plus.
Full Gear 2022, so far, features 11 matches, possibly making it one of the longest AEW events this year. The Jacksonville-based promotion added two huge title matches to the show on the November 16, 2022, edition of Dynamite.
Following a reported suspension post-All Out, The Elite will return to AEW at the event. Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks will take on Death Triangle (PAC and The Lucha Brothers) for the World Trios Tag Team Championship.
Wardlow will defend his TNT Championship against Samoa Joe and Powerhouse in a triple-threat match. All three men found themselves in a huge brawl on Dynamite this week.
Mr. Mayhem will look to make the ROH World Television Champion pay for attacking him on the November 9, 2022, edition of Dynamite. As for Hobbs, he will aim for his first singles title win in AEW.
The main event of Full Gear 2022 will see Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF) challenge Jon Moxley for the AEW World Championship. The Devil earned the right to challenge for the title after winning the Casino Ladder Match at All Out.
Maxwell has disassociated himself from The Firm in the wake of their heinous assault on him, but are his intentions genuine, or is it all just a fluke?
