As announced on TNT Twitter account (@AEWonTNT), AEW's first tv show will premiere on October 2nd in the 8PM ET time slot and will air LIVE from the Capitol One Arena in Washington, DC.

Curiously, AEW's weekly tv show does not yet appear to have a name. The promotional material is all about the All Elite Wrestling branding.

Still, this expected news is truly a game-changer of a development: big time, mainstream pro wrestling is back. This is something fans have yearned for for a very, very long time.

Tickets and pricing for AEW's first live show will be announced Monday 29th July at 12pm ET via AEW's social media platforms.

The show, if nothing else, will help establish AEW’s credentials as competition, and bring to an end increasingly tiresome dialogue. The sweeping, babyface statements and the momentum generated by Double Or Nothing comes to a head in October.

Will wins and losses truly matter? How big a draw are the Elite, really?

Ironically, at Fight For The Fallen, Cody remarked that, “You can’t counter-programme AEW”. Recent reports indicate that WWE are planning to do precisely that by airing NXT on FS1 head to head.
