AEW Owen Hart Cup 2025: Tournament Brackets Unveiled
Overview of the AEW Owen Hart Cup 2025
The AEW Owen Hart Cup 2025 is set to kick off soon, aiming to crown new contenders for the top men’s and women’s titles in All Elite Wrestling. During the latest episode of AEW Dynamite, the brackets for both male and female competitors were disclosed for the upcoming tournaments.
This year’s tournament will feature eight participants and is scheduled to commence in the coming weeks, culminating in the finals at the Double or Nothing pay-per-view event in Glendale, Arizona, on May 25. The champions of each tournament will not only receive a championship belt but also a guaranteed title shot of their choosing.
All eight female competitors for the AEW Owen Hart Cup 2025 have been confirmed, while a wild card position remains open in the men's bracket, hinting at a surprise entrant.
In a recent development, Kevin Knight has stepped in as a replacement for Jay White, who had initially entered the tournament but was sidelined by an attack from The Death Riders during Wednesday’s Dynamite.
Excalibur confirmed during the match card announcement that White had been assaulted and would not be able to participate. No footage of the incident was aired.
Additionally, reports indicate that White's injury is legitimate and may require surgery, although details regarding the injury's severity and recovery timeline are still unclear.
