    Wrestling Tonight: AEW FULL GEAR PREVIEW | WWE ID EXPANDS WITH NEW TALENT | OMEGA DOUBLES DOWN ON GABE KIDD INCIDENT | BRONSON REED JOINS BLOODLINE FOR WAR GAMES

    This week, we bring you everything you need to know about AEW FULL GEAR, featuring must-see matchups such as ORANGE CASSIDY vs JON MOXLEY for the AEW CHAMPIONSHIP, alongside compelling storylines that don't involve championships—an important indicator of the promotion's booking direction. We also take a deep dive into the match card for Josh Barnett's Bloodsport XII, showcasing its distinct approach to professional wrestling. The news doesn’t end there: WWE is further expanding its WWE ID Program by bringing in new prospects, complementing its ongoing efforts through the NIL initiative, which continues to target former NFL players and emerging talent. The system is clearly being bolstered from every direction. Meanwhile, Kenny Omega's candid remarks regarding his backstage altercation with Gabe Kidd provide valuable insight into AEW, revealing why he’s now choosing to devote time to his comeback with NJPW. On WWE SmackDown, Bronson Reed shocked the world by joining The Bloodline for Survivor Series, aligning with Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa. Meanwhile, Becky Lynch teases an end to her hiatus, and the inaugural Women’s United States Championship tournament is officially underway. Jake Paul’s controversial victory over Mike Tyson was overshadowed by significant streaming issues on Netflix, which raises concerns for WWE’s rumored January debut on the platform. As WWE looks to innovate its broadcasting strategy, these technical hiccups could spell trouble if Netflix doesn’t address its live-streaming woes. Meanwhile, CMLL stars are set to return to AEW, and major events loom large, including AEW’s return to the legendary Hammerstein Ballroom and the much-anticipated Winter is Coming on December 11th in Kansas City. We also spotlight Shinsuke Nakamura’s dramatic return to WWE television, Dakota Kai’s long-awaited in-ring comeback, and the AEW Continental Classic, which kicks off during Dynamite on November 27th! Stay tuned as we preview the week ahead, dive into these stories, and break down everything happening across WWE, AEW, TNA, NJPW, ROH, and more.
