Tony Khan has confirmed that there will be a "Battle of the Belts" special that will also include an update on the Owen Hart Cup tournament.
During an AEW Full Gear media scrum on Thursday, the AEW President spoke about the aforementioned special coming in early 2022.
The company officially filed to trademark the term for the event name at the beginning of this year.
Khan stated the following during today's media scrum about the upcoming "Battle of the Belts" show.
“That same week when we launch Dynamite on TBS, we’ll have Rampage on TNT, and then we’ll have the first-ever Battle of the Belts in AEW. Stay tuned for more info on that. 2022, we’re going to start it in a very big way.”
Regarding the Owen Hart Cup tourney, Khan stated the following:
"There will be updates on the Owen Hart Memorial Tournament after Full Gear. There is so much on the card and so many stories and I didn’t want the Owen Hart Cup to lose the focus when I start talking about it. The Owen is going to be a big prize in AEW and I’ll have some interesting announcements about it. You’ll get more announcements and I’ll save it for Dynamite or Rampage after the pay-per-view.”
