AEW has confirmed when this year’s Continental Classic tournament begins.
The company announced on social media that the 2026 Continental Classic tournament kicks off on the November 18 episode of Dynamite at Mission Ballroom in Denver, Colorado.
This will mark the first Dynamite following Full Gear 2026.
The Continental Classic is a round-robin tournament where twelve wrestlers battle across the Blue and Gold Leagues, all chasing a future shot at the AEW Continental Championship at Worlds End.
Eddie Kingston won the very first edition back in 2023, while current champion Jon Moxley took home last year’s trophy. Moxley also won this summer’s inaugural Continental Challenge Cup, beating Nigel McGuinness in the finals at All In: London 2026 to remain champion.
AEW star Swerve Strickland has released a brand new song titled “Coo Coo,” teaming up with Harlem artist Max B for the collaboration.
The track dropped on all major streaming platforms today and blends Swerve’s confident rap style with Max B’s classic wave era sound.
This release marks the second song under Strickland’s own record label, which he runs alongside his longtime collaborator and attorney, Tony C. Richa. It follows his previous successful collaboration with Wu-Tang Clan legend Raekwon.

Orange Cassidy has picked his ideal tag team partner, and the choice says a lot about his laid-back style.
During a recent interview with “Catch Club,” Cassidy named WWE Hall of Famer Dean Malenko, explaining that Malenko could handle the tough technical work while he simply hangs back and relaxes. He said,
“I’m not looking ever to fight somebody. I don’t want to get hit. But if I had to do a dream tag team partner, you’re saying? I would like to do Dean Malenko. Because he could go in there and… get business done, and then I can just hang out.”
