It's Wednesday! You know what that means.

AEW Dynamite goes live from the Chesapeake Employers Insurance Arena in Baltimore with all of the fallout from Sunday night's Dynasty PPV.

The Women's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament is set to continue as Kris Statlander and Thunder Rosa meet in their opening round contest. AEW Women's Champion Timeless Toni Storm will be on commentary for that match to get a first hand look at who will join Mercedes Moné in the Semi-Finals.

Swerve Strickland is not the AEW World Champion. Despite his best efforts, he wasn't able to overcome the interference of the Death Riders and the returning Young Bucks Sunday night at Dynasty.

No doubt Swerve has revenge on his mind and it starts tonight in a singles match against PAC. The rest of the Death Riders are also in action as Claudio and Wheeler Yuta battle Samoa Joe and HOOK in a tag team match. And in a match not announced until this afternoon, AEW World Champion Jon Moxley will face off against Katsuyori Shibata.

Plus a $400,000 Explosive 8-Man Tag Team Match will take place! Competitors listed below. Here is everything we currently know about tonight's episode of AEW Dynamite in Baltimore:

The winner of the tournament gets a shot at the AEW Women's Title at All In Texas, and with Megan Bayne behind her, Toni Storm will be on commentary tonight to get a close look at potentially her next challenger.

Swerve Strickland should be walking into Baltimore as the AEW World Champion, but a list of enemies got in his business Sunday night at Dynasty to make sure that didn't happen. One of those men, is a real Bastard. Swerve will look for a measure of revenge against PAC when he goes one-on-one with the Trios Champion later tonight.

Samoe Joe & HOOK want a piece of the Death Riders

The Opps were in Philadelphia Sunday night at Dynasty to scout out their competition, and ended up engaging in a brawl with the AEW World Trios Champions during the main event. With PAC already in action, Samoa Joe & HOOK will settle for a fight against Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta tonight on Dynamite.
