AEW REVOLUTION PPV NOTES STEMMING FROM TONY KHAN ON AEW UNRESTRICTED PODCAST

Tony Khan previews Sunday's Revolution on this week's "AEW Unrestricted" podcast.  PPV related notes coming out of the show:

*Chris Jericho and MJF versus Young Bucks for the AEW Tag Team Championship is scheduled to be the first match on the PPV.

 *The sixth entrant in the Face of the Revolution Ladder Match will be a surprise announced that night. The competitors will be reaching for "a brass ring" suspended over the ring. The winner will face off with Darby Allin for the TNT championship next week on Dynamite. If Darby cannot compete due to injuries suffered in the Street Fight, Darby will be stripped of the title and a new champion will be crowned.

*There will be at least 1,300 fans in attendance at Daily's Place, 25% capacity.

*The new signing mentioned by Paul Wight on Dynamite is a "big big star" who will sign a multi-year contract.  Khan made it clear that the new signing is not the sixth man in the Face of the Revolution Ladder match.

*Regarding AEW Dark: Elevation, Tony Khan is excited for the commentary team of Paul Wight and Tony Schiavone.  Khan is also excited for when the World's Largest Athlete enters the ring as a competitor.  In regards to what "Elevation" will be more focused on young faces and independent names and veterans all mixed in. Khan talks about the show on YouTube being an extension of the "Dark" brand. He talks about how "Dark" transformed during the pandemic, giving independent wrestlers a place to work Tony states that the third hour of television on TNT is coming.  But they will not be adding another hour of Dynamite. He hopes they can focus on more stars with the extra hour of television. Because you don't see everyone every week.

*Khan is excited for the Exploding Barbed Wire Death Match.  Khan puts over both Moxley and Omega. He noted this World Title reign has opened "the forbidden door" and showed that everyone is on the same side against "those that are against them" talking about working with Impact.
