Bengaluru, February 23: All Elite Wrestling will present the first pay-per-view of the year, next month in the form of Revolution. The 2023 edition of the event will be headlined by an Iron Man Match over the AEW World Title between the champion MJF and the challenger Bryan Danielson.
The card for the Revolution event was further strengthened this week as AEW announced that Ricky Starks will take on Chris Jericho in singles action at the PPV.
After a conversation, Starks fooled Jericho to sign in an open contract, this week on Dynamite to make the match happen. The bad news about the contract is that Jericho Appreciation Society members will be barred from ringside.
Jamie Hayter will also defend her AEW Women's World Championship in a three-way match against Ruby Soho and Saraya in a marquee match at the upcoming pay-per-view event.
Hayter issued the challenge during a backstage interview segment with Tony Schiavone on the latest episode of Dynamite.
Saraya picked up a win over Skye Blue this week on Dynamite after which Jamie Hayter and Dr. Britt Baker DMD ran down to the ring to prevent Saraya and her tag partner Toni Storm from spray-painting Blue.
As the recently-turned heel duo was retreating through the entrance ramp, Ruby Soho appeared on the stage and she also intended to go after the gold held by Hayter.
Then Hayter and Baker talked to Tony Schiavone where Hayter ultimately decided to give both Saraya and Soho the opportunity to the championship because she feels confident to hold on to her title despite the odds not being in her favor.
Over the past few months, Hayter and Baker have been feuding with Saraya and Storm. In the last 2022 AEW PPV, that's Full Gear in November, Saraya returned to action after five long years by defeating Baker in a singles competition.
In more news from Revolution, Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal have confirmed their place on the card by winning the Revolution Tag Team Battle Royale on Dynamite, this week.
By virtue of this win, they will now challenge The Gunns for the AEW World Tag Team Championship in a match that will also involve The Acclaimed and a fourth team that is yet to be announced.
The 2023 AEW Revolution pay-per-view event is scheduled for Sunday, March 5 at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California. The updated match card for the event goes as follows:
- 60-Minute Iron Man Match for the AEW World Championship: MJF (c) vs. Bryan Danielson
- Fatal-4-Way Match for the AEW World Tag Team Championships: The Gunns (c) vs. The Acclaimed vs. Jeff Jarrett & Jay Lethal vs. TBD
