Jon Moxley and Gabe Kidd will join forces for an unexpected AEW tag team match at Grand Slam: France. Interestingly, the unlikely pairing comes with plenty of history behind it.
The match was officially added to the card for the special Tuesday night edition of AEW Dynamite in Paris.
The match stems from the October 3 episode of AEW Collision, where Moxley defeated Jake Doyle in a hard-fought Continental Championship Eliminator match. Following the bout, Doyle and his Don Callis Family stablemate Mark Davis challenged members of the Death Riders to meet them in Paris.
AEW CEO Tony Khan has now answered that challenge. Moxley will team with fellow Death Riders member Kidd to take on Davis and Doyle at the Adidas Arena.
The partnership is particularly notable given the complicated history between Moxley and Kidd. Just a few weeks ago, Moxley stopped Kidd from attacking Will Ospreay with a steel chair. That decisive action showed that their alliance hasn’t always been the smoothest ride.
Still, with the Don Callis Family duo looking for a fight, Moxley and Kidd will put their differences aside to represent the Death Riders. After all, sometimes the best way to settle old scores is to make new ones together.
Grand Slam: France takes place tonight, October 6, 2026, from Paris, France. The special episode of Dynamite will air at 8 p.m. ET on TBS and HBO Max.
The rest of the announced card includes Mercedes Mone vs. Queen Aminata, Darby Allin vs. Kyle Fletcher, Bandido vs. Kofi, Samoa Joe vs. Jungle Jack Perry in a Clockwork Carnage qualifying match, and Will Ospreay vs. Kazuchika Okada for the AEW World Championship.
