AEW has announced several new championship matches for their Texas 2025 Pay-per-view event scheduled for next Saturday. Following their debut U.S. stadium show on July 12 at Toyota Arena in Ontario, California, notable highlights include the return of former AEW TNT and World Tag Team Champion Scorpio Sky and confirmations of key title bouts for the Texas event.
The opening match featured Kevin Knight securing a pinfall win over Shelton Benjamin and Nick Wayne in a triple threat match. This led to Tony Ciaborne confirming that Heart Syndicate’s Shelton Benjamin and Bobby Lashley will defend their AEW World Tag Team Championship against Jetspeed (Kevin Knight & Speedball Mike Bailey) and the Texas-based patriarchy team (Christian Cage & Nick Wayne).
In the main event, Kyle Fletcher took on Daniel Garcia after both wrestlers wagered their title shot opportunities. Though initially, Cole proposed a three-way title match, Fletcher emerged victorious, designating Garcia as the number one contender. Fletcher now has a shot at ending Adam Cole’s TNT title reign and potentially winning his first singles title in AEW.
Additionally, the Death Riders’ Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta have challenged the AEW Trios champions for the upcoming pay-per-view, though the match is yet to be official. While Yuta’s partner PAC remains sidelined with an injury, Jon Moxley will headline the event by defending the AEW World Title against Hangman Page.
