CM Punk, Darby Allin & Sting Vs. MJF & FTR Set For AEW Dynamite Holiday Bash

Three generations will join forces on next week's special 'Holiday Bash' edition of AEW Dynamite.

CM Punk revealed on Wednesday's episode of Dynamite that he will team with Darby Allin and Sting against The Pinnacle's MJF and FTR in a Trios Match on December 22 at the Greensboro Coliseum in North Carolina. Tony Schiavone noted on commentary this will be Sting's first match in the famous arena in 27 years.

The match came about following the main event of Wednesday's Dynamite, where MJF defeated Dante Martin to win the Dynamite Diamond Ring for the third year in a row.

FTR celebrated with MJF following the match but then the lights suddenly went out and Sting and Darby Allin were in the ring when they came back on, which led to a brawl. The Pinnacle managed to gain the upper hand but then CM Punk charged to the ring to even the odds before he announced a Trios Match will take place next week.

Both teams have had their issues with each other in recent months. Darby Allin and Sting defeated FTR at AEW Dynamite Grand Slam and MJF would later beat Darby at Full Gear. CM Punk and MJF have been locked in a feud in recent weeks.

Tony Khan will also make an announcement on next week's show and Griff Garrison of the Varsity Blonds will face Malakai Black as he looks to exact revenge on the former NXT Champion after Black sprayed black mist in Julia Hart's face.
