AEW offers clarification on HOOK vs. Roderick Strong.
All Elite Wrestling announced that HOOK will defend the FTR Championship against Roderick Strong at AEW Dynamite Grand Slam.
The bout was previously announced, but it was only labeled as taking place on Wednesday instead of given a distinct branding. AEW will hold AEW Dynamite live and then tape AEW Collision Grand Slam after.
