AEW Announces Special ‘Rebel Heart Dynamite’ Event To Support ALS Research
The event, titled “AEW Rebel Heart Dynamite,” will take place on September 9 at Akins Ford Arena in Athens, Georgia, and will honor AEW personality Rebel (Tanea Brooks), who revealed in May that she had been diagnosed with ALS.
Rebel Scheduled To Appear
As part of the event, Rebel is expected to make a special appearance for fans in attendance.
AEW also announced several initiatives tied to the show that will help raise awareness and funding for ALS-related causes. According to the company’s press release, fans attending the event will receive a limited-edition Rebel trading card sheet from Upper Deck while supplies last.
In addition, AEW will make donations from the event to two organizations dedicated to supporting ALS patients and advancing research efforts: I AM ALS and Team Gleason.
Rebel currently serves as a spokesperson for I AM ALS, an advocacy organization focused on finding treatments and improving quality of life for those affected by the disease.
Connection To ALS Research Community
The location of the event carries additional significance.
Akins Ford Arena serves as the community home of the University of Georgia’s Regenerative Bioscience Center (RBC), where researchers are actively working on developing new therapies for ALS while also training the next generation of scientists in the field.
By hosting the event in Athens, AEW is helping shine a spotlight on the ongoing research efforts taking place within the local community.
Tony Khan Comments On The Event
AEW President Tony Khan issued a statement following the announcement, emphasizing the company’s commitment to supporting the cause.
Khan said AEW is proud to present Rebel Heart Dynamite and looks forward to honoring Rebel while raising both awareness and financial support for organizations working to combat ALS and assist those living with the disease.
The AEW President also praised the efforts of the charities involved and highlighted the importance of continuing the fight for better treatments and, ultimately, a cure.
Additional Fundraising Efforts Underway
The September event is part of a larger effort by AEW to support ALS-related initiatives.
The company is currently selling Rebel Heart t-shirts and bracelets, with 100% of proceeds benefiting I AM ALS and Team Gleason.
Khan has also previously expressed interest in reviving AEW’s Fight for the Fallen concept as a platform for raising awareness and funds for ALS research.
Meanwhile, the Ice Bucket Challenge has experienced a resurgence in recent months, with several AEW personalities taking part. Among those participating was Britt Baker, who has a longstanding on-screen association with Rebel.
AEW is also encouraging fans to get involved through donations, awareness campaigns, and participation in fundraising efforts.
Wrestling Community Rallies Around Rebel
Since revealing her diagnosis earlier this year, Rebel has received an outpouring of support from wrestlers, fans, and members of the broader wrestling community.
The announcement of Rebel Heart Dynamite represents another example of that support, with AEW using one of its flagship television programs to celebrate Rebel while helping advance the fight against ALS.
As September approaches, the event is expected to serve as both a tribute to Rebel and an opportunity to bring greater attention to the ongoing efforts to support those affected by the disease.
The special edition of Dynamite is set to combine wrestling and philanthropy, giving fans an opportunity to celebrate Rebel while contributing to organizations working to improve the lives of ALS patients and fund critical research.

Willow Nightingale Returns to AEW, Wins Women’s Casino Gauntlet for World Title Opportunity
Willow Nightingale made an immediate impact in her return to AEW, emerging victorious in the Women’s Casino Gauntlet Match on this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite. The win secures Nightingale a future shot at AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla at AEW Redemption.
The high-stakes gauntlet featured a loaded field of competitors and plenty of chaos from start to finish. ROH Women’s World Champion Athena and Maya World kicked off the match, trading offense until Skye Blue entered as the third participant. Blue wasted no time making her presence felt, bringing a kendo stick to the ring and using it to gain the upper hand.
Mina Shirakawa joined the action next, followed by Stardom’s Rina, adding an international flavor to the contest. Outside the ring, Athena delivered a brutal attack on Blue by driving her back-first into the ring steps.
The match continued to escalate when Julia Hart arrived carrying a trash can lid. Hart unleashed a flurry of offense on the field before she and Blue turned their attention to AEW officials, using chairs in a wild confrontation at ringside.
Thunder Rosa entered as the seventh competitor and immediately went after Hart and Blue. Rosa also exchanged hard-hitting strikes with Rina and scored a notable combination neck breaker and back breaker. Athena briefly regained momentum, but several competitors prevented her from capitalizing.
The biggest reaction of the match came when Nightingale entered as the eighth participant. Returning from injury, the former TBS Champion stormed into the ring and quickly changed the complexion of the bout. Nightingale ran through the competition, delivering a series of power moves that included a devastating powerbomb to Athena on the ring apron and a Death Valley Driver on the arena floor.
With the field cleared, Nightingale sealed the victory by planting Julia Hart with another powerbomb, earning the decisive pinfall and securing her championship opportunity.
The celebration was short-lived. AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla left the commentary desk and attacked Nightingale after the match, sending a clear message ahead of their upcoming title clash. Elsewhere, Lena Kross and Megan Bayne brawled with Skye Blue and Julia Hart near the entrance ramp, adding even more chaos to the post-match scene.
To close the segment, 2026 Women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament winner Mercedes Moné made her way to the ring. With both Thekla and Nightingale present, Moné inserted herself into the situation by taking out both women, further complicating the AEW women’s championship picture.
With Nightingale back in action, Thekla holding the title, and Moné looming as a major threat, the road to AEW Redemption just became significantly more interesting.

Paul Wight Teases In-Ring Appearance During AEW Dynamite Beach Break – ‘It’s A Big Secret’
AEW may have a surprise in store for fans during tonight’s special Dynamite: Beach Break event, and it could involve one of the company’s biggest stars stepping back into the spotlight.
Speaking with 10 Tampa News ahead of the show, AEW veteran Paul Wight teased that he will be involved during the broadcast and suggested that fans may see him inside the ring.
“I am going to be in the ring, doing something,” Wight said. “I can’t tell you what, because it’s a big secret. But if you come, you will see me maybe slap some people around.”
While Wight stopped short of revealing exactly what he has planned, his comments have sparked speculation that the former world champion could be preparing for a rare physical appearance on AEW television.
Wight has largely worked as a commentator, ambassador, and backstage mentor during his time with AEW. Injuries and health issues have limited his in-ring activity in recent years, with his last AEW match taking place in late 2023 and his most recent wrestling appearance coming in early 2024.
Despite that absence, Wight recently made it clear that retirement is not currently in his plans. During an interview earlier this year, he stated that he still hopes to compete again and even named Kenny Omega and Darby Allin among the AEW stars he would be interested in facing.
Interestingly, Omega is scheduled for one of the biggest matches of the night at Beach Break. The former AEW World Champion will challenge MJF for the AEW Men’s World Championship in a bout carrying major implications. If Omega comes up short, he will permanently lose the right to challenge for the AEW World Championship again, joining Cody Rhodes and Hangman Adam Page on that list.
Tonight’s card is also set to feature Konosuke Takeshita defending the AEW International Championship against Kyle Fletcher, Chris Jericho facing Tommaso Ciampa, and a Women’s Casino Gauntlet Match to determine the next challenger for AEW Women’s World Champion Thekla at AEW Redemption.
Whether Wight’s involvement is tied to one of those matches or something entirely different remains to be seen, but his comments have certainly added another layer of intrigue heading into one of AEW’s biggest television events of the summer.
