Tony Khan announced the anticipated return of NJPW veteran Tomohiro Ishii. The 49-year-old last competed in All Elite Wrestling on the August 30 episode of Collision. Meanwhile, Ishii is set for a major match against former four-time AEW World Champion Jon Moxley upon his return.

Taking to X/Twitter, Tony Khan announced the massive bout between Moxley and Tomohiro Ishii for the upcoming Dynamite: Title Tuesday. Khan also talked about the match between PAC and Orange Cassidy on the same show in his post, where Marina Shafir, Moxley, and the rest of the Death Riders, along with Mark Briscoe and the other Conglomeration members, will not be at ringside:

Moxley might be in serious trouble because Ishii is known as a tough, strong-style wrestler. It will be interesting to see how the leader of the Death Riders counters the Japanese legend this Tuesday.


Jon Moxley is set for an "I Quit" match at AEW WrestleDream

Jon Moxley and the Death Riders have been feuding with Darby Allin for nearly a year. After Allin returned at All In: Texas following months of hiatus, he has been on a quest to take down Moxley. At All Out 2025, The Purveyor of Violence defeated the 32-year-old in a Coffin match.

Nonetheless, Darby Allin confronted the Death Riders with a flamethrower on a recent episode of Dynamite and challenged Moxley to an "I Quit" match. The leader of the Death Riders later accepted the challenge, and the bout has been made official for WrestleDream 2025 later this month.

It remains to be seen if Moxley manages to make Darby say "I Quit" at the WrestleDream pay-per-view.
