AEW Announces New Tournament, Brian Cage To Defend FTW Championship
- A new tournament was announced on tonight's AEW Dynamite episode.

The tournament will feature eight wrestlers in a single elimination format with the finals taking place at AEW Full Gear on November 7.

The winner of the tournament gets a future AEW World Title Match. Three entrants were announced tonight and they are: Jungle Boy, Rey Fenix, and Kenny Omega.

Kenny Omega revently said he would be focusing on singles competition after being involved in the tag division for most of the past year: "There are things I'm destined to do here. I gave a year of my life to the team, to Hangman, and to tag team wrestling. I think it's time I go back to singles action and give everyone a piece of what they were hoping to see since day one."
