I’m one of the countless dreamers that Mr. Inoki influenced in his remarkable lifetime. Since he passed away exactly one year ago today, I’ve worked to create an event for fans around the world to celebrate his creations–and the fighting spirit that he will forever embody.

Tonight in Seattle, we’ll proudly honor Mr. Inoki,” said Khan. “The greatest champions and rivalries in the sport will take center stage, and a new era in AEW will begin at WrestleDream.”
