This week's episode of AEW Dynamite is a massive one as it's not only the start of the annual AEW Continental Classic tournament, but it's also the AEW Full Gear fallout show.

As AEW Full Gear went off the air, Swerve Strickland had made his AEW return and Samoa Joe defeated Adam Page inside of a steel cage to become the AEW Men's World Champion. What will Joe have to say about not only winning the world title, but seeing Strickland return.

As for Adam Page, what will his reaction be to losing the title he spent most of the year chasing down. AEW fans will get some answers on AEW Dynamite.

The annual AEW Continental Classic tournament begins on this week's pre-Thanksgiving edition of AEW Dynamite. There will be round-robin tournament matches on the show.

First, Don Callis Family members, Kazuchika Okada and Kyle Fletcher will collide in the Gold League. The other Gold League match this week is Darby Allin vs. Kevin Knight. In the Blue League, Jon Moxley will go one-on one with Mascara Dorada.

Moxley is still on a cold streak in AEW. At Full Gear he tapped out yet again. This time, it was to Kyle O'Reilly in a No Holds Barred match.

Dynamite this week will also be the place where the AEW Women's Tag Team Championship tournament continues. In semifinal action, Babes of Wrath will clash against Sisters of Sin. Which team will advance to the tournament final for a chance to be the first-ever women's tag team champions in AEW.

In other women's division action, what will Mercedes Mone have to say about coming up short in her quest to win the AEW Women's World Championship at Full Gear. Mone lost her title match to Kris Statlander. Mone still holds many championships, but it's not the big one.
