As most are aware, AEW will be airing a new episode of Dynamite tonight (Friday) at 10PM EST. Dynamite was pre-empted on Wednesday due to the NBA Playoffs taking over their usual time slot. Dynamite will also air on June 4th (Friday) at the same time. The current plan is to tape AEW Dark between 8PM and 10PM, then Dynamite goes live between 10PM and 12AM EST.
Depending on how the NBA Playoffs go, there may be other schedule changes with AEW coming up in the next several weeks, changing Dynamite from airing live on Wednesday’s to either Friday or Saturday night. If AEW were to air on Saturday night for June 26th, this would mean that Dynamite would be going head-to-head with UFC Vegas 30, which will feature Cyril Gane vs. Alexander Volkov. Dynamite will then have a live taping on June 30th, which will be the last Jacksonville show before a July 7th taping in Miami. From that point on, they will be live.
While going back on the road will add to expenses due to travel costs and flying, they will pick up live gates to offset those costs. For episodes of AEW Dark, the company will give tryouts to talent who are from the local areas of the cities they visit.
