AEW WrestleDream: Important Update on ‘No Rules’ Matches
In an important update regarding the upcoming WrestleDream event, it has been highlighted that matches may face strict regulations due to Missouri’s pro wrestling commission. This commission enforces rules that could significantly change the dynamics of several anticipated bouts set for Saturday in St. Louis.
Impact of Pro Wrestling Commission on WrestleDream Matches
Bryan Alvarez has noted that the pro wrestling commission in Missouri will likely enforce strict guidelines. These rules are expected to affect all matches, particularly those that are labeled as ‘no rules’ contests. This includes the much-anticipated I Quit match between Jon Moxley and Darby Allin.
Notable Matches at WrestleDream
The buildup to the I Quit match has been intense, featuring elements like fire, blood, and molotov cocktails, indicating that both wrestlers may attempt to push the limits of their confrontation.
