Orange Cassidy has advanced in the International Championship Series and will challenge for the title on next week’s AEW Dynamite.

Cassidy defeated Roderick Strong on Wednesday’s Dynamite in the show’s main event in the first match of the International Championship Series, advancing to next week’s title match against current champ Konosuke Takeshita.
