Wheeler Yuta and Orange Cassidy got very personal in a confrontation that will now lead to an AEW All-Atlantic Championship Match.
When Trent Berretta was out with an injury, Wheeler Yuta and Orange Cassidy were once aligned as Yuta was the stand-in Best Friend. Eventually, Yuta elected to join Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, and Bryan Danielson in the Blackpool Combat Club.
Now, Yuta and Cassidy are prepared to go one-on-one for Cassidy's AEW All-Atlantic Championship on the February 22 AEW Dynamite. This follows a confrontation between both men on the February 17 AEW Rampage.
