All Elite Wrestling Dynamite hasn't even debuted on TNT yet, but it looks like the promotion might already have a second weekly show in the works.

This story comes from WarnerMedia's Brett Weitz (the General Manager for TNT, TBT, and TruTV), who spoke to The Wrap yesterday, stating that the network and AEW were working on developing a companion studio show for the Dynamite flagship.

"We are talking about it," Weitz said. "I don't know if you've met Tony Khan, but he's not short of ideas or passion. So there is a world where we're thinking about 'where does something like that live?', knowing full well that within the WarnerMedia ecosystem we have B/R Live, we've got all these different components at our disposal."

This might sound like an overload, given that Dynamite doesn't start until next week, but Weitz would disagree: "the more content for the fans the better, and we could love to figure out what something like that looks like."

WWE are, of course, planning on unleashing a studio show of their own on FS1, though they've yet to confirm a name or premiere date for the Renee Young-helmed project.
