At this stage, there is nothing to suggest that Kingston won’t appear for AEW on the September 20 episode of “Dynamite” in his home region despite pulling out of the AIW booking. The change may be an indication that Kingston will appear during Saturday night’s “AEW Collision” to further build the hype for his title match against Castagnoli.

Archer has appeared sporadically for AEW over recent months, with his last match coming in a losing effort against now-former AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy at July’s “Battle of the Belts” event.
