Matt Hardy vs. Alan ‘5’ Angels Set for Next Week’s AEW Dark: Elevation

– Earlier today on Twitter, Matt Hardy declared that he hates The Dark Order, and he plans to take out every member, starting with 5 aka Alan Angels. After the callout, AEW President Tony Khan opted to set up the match for next week’s episode of AEW Dark: Elevation.

Hardy initially wrote, “I HATE YOU! I HATE THE DARK ORDER! You had a chance to support a winning team, The #HFO! Should’ve known you cult freaks couldn’t stop drinking the Kool Aid. I’m gonna take my frustrations with you out on every member of the #DarkOrder, starting with 5, @Alan_V_Angels.”

Tony Khan later tweeted, “That sounds like a dope match for #AEWDarkElevation on Monday night, Alan ‘5’ Angels vs. ‘Big Money’ Matt Hardy. Consider it booked.” You can view the match announcement below.

The new episode of AEW Dark will debut on Monday on AEW’s official YouTube channel at 7:00 pm EST. Here’s the updated lineup:

* Ethan Page and Scorpio Sky vs. Mike and Matt Sydal
* Matt Hardy vs. Alan “5” Angels

That sounds like a dope match for #AEWDarkElevation on Monday night, Alan 5 Angels vs. Big Money Matt Hardy. Consider it booked.
