Bedlam championship, featuring current champion Bobby Orlando and challengers Aaron Rourke, King Crab, VSK and Devantes.
Other top stars slated to appear are former WWE standout Matt Rehwoldt (FKA Aiden English), AEW mainstays Max Caster and "Smart" Mark Sterling, Skylar, Rachael Ellering, Bryce Donovan, Kirby Wackerman, the Maine State Posse, Travis Huckabee, the Apostles of Chaos, Perry Von Vicious and a meet-and-greet with Danhausen.

Commissioner Tim Jensen added, "Enfield has been wonderful to us, and we try to give back to such a supportive community."
Toys For Joy has been aiding Enfield families for more than 60 years. Applications to receive assistance from Toys For Joy are available at the Enfield Police Department through Dec. 15.
Anyone still wishing to donate new, unwrapped toys to the drive, which is aimed at children from infants through age 8, will have several other opportunities. The police department will conduct its annual Stuff a Cruiser campaign in front of the Target store at Enfield Square on Dec. 4, 5, 11 and 12. Donations may also be dropped off at the police department anytime prior to Dec. 15.
