All Elite Wrestling will finish the year strong with three special holiday-themed editions of AEW Dynamite that extend into the first week of January.
The following is the AEW Dynamite holiday schedule:
- December 23rd: AEW Holiday Bash
- December 30th: AEW New Year’s Smash (Night 1)
- January 6th: AEW New Year’s Smash (Night 2)

As usual, it’s a stacked lineup.
AEW Dynamite Holiday Bash Preview
Young Bucks vs. The Acclaimed
The Acclaimed has received a lot of attention since recently joining AEW. The duo has already built a 7-1 record and are already the number 5 ranked tag team in the company. Max Caster and Anthony Bowens made their AEW Dynamite debuts last week. The Young Bucks were scouting them at ringside. After picking up a win, the Acclaimed challenged Nick and Matt Jackson to a match at Holiday Bash.
The Acclaimed has looked impressive, but they will be up against their toughest challenge to date against AEW’s world tag team champions, the Young Bucks. A win would cement the Acclaimed as an AEW tag team to reckon with.
Chris Jericho & MJF vs. Top Flight
Chris Jericho and MJF appear to be back on the same page after Jericho recently presented the Inner Circle with an ultimatum. The Dinner Debonair co-stars will have to be quick on their feet at AEW Holiday Bash when they face Top Flight. Jericho and Friedman know every trick in the book to get an edge on their opponents, but they will have to stay on their toes vs. Top Flight.
PAC vs. The Butcher
PAC returns to action against one of Eddie Kingston’s henchmen, The Butcher.
Dustin Rhodes vs. Evil Uno
“The Natural” Dustin Rhodes did not take kindly to the Dark Order attempting to recruit him two weeks ago on Dynamite. The 51-year-old legend gets a chance at revenge against Evil Uno.
Jurassic Express vs. Dark Order
Jungle Boy, Luchasaurus and Marko Stunt will square off vs. Colt Cabana, 5 and 10 of the Dark Order.
We will also see:
- AEW Women’s Champion Hikaru Shida will be in action.
- Sting will be interviewed by Tony Schiavone
- Kip Sabian and Penelope Ford will announce their wedding date.
As of this writing, AEW has not announced anything for AEW World Champion Kenny Omega, TNT Champion Darby Allin, Cody Rhodes or Team Taz.
Join us this Wednesday for our AEW Holiday Bash results and takeaways feature.
