In an update on All Elite Wrestling’s (AEW) TNT debut, which will take place this fall, the company and network are still narrowing down the timeslot for the show. The plan is still to do a show on Tuesday or Wednesday. Dave Meltzer said, “I was told it’s 100 percent Tuesday or Wednesday.”
The AEW show on TNT show will be a weekly, live two-hour show. Many of you know by now that WWE’s SmackDown! Live will be moving to FOX on Friday nights beginning on October 4th. The first show will take place from the STAPLES Center in Los Angelas, CA. The last Tuesday edition of WWE SmackDown! Live on USA Network will be held on September 24th. That would allow AEW to start on TNT as early as Tuesday, October 1st.
Also, as far as Fyter Fest being available as an iPPV in the UK is concerned, there’s a mentality that while American fans are getting Fyter Fest for free on Bleacher Report Live, UK fans paid much less for “Double or Nothing”. The iPPV price in the UK for the event, added to what UK fans paid for Double or Nothing, would still be cheaper than what American fans had to pay to watch “Double or Nothing” on pay-per-view in the US. So, UK fans should be OK with paying for Fyter Fest, since they were able to buy “Double or Nothing” for a cheaper price.
