AEW Dynamite To Air On Tape Delay On The USA's West Coast
Big update on AEW's upcoming TV schedule.
The wrestling world is currently gearing up for Wednesday 2 October, when All Elite Wrestling Dynamite debuts on TNT, thus kickstarting the so-called "Wednesday Night Wars."
While we already know that Dynamite will air at 8pm EST in the on the United States' east coast, going head-to-head with WWE NXT, but the question of how the show would be handled on the west coast remained a mystery - until now.
Per Wrestling Inc., AEW won't broadcast Dynamite live on the west but will instead go out on a tape delay, though DirectTV will be airing the east coast feed live across the country. In addition, TV listings on Colorado currently have the show airing at 8PM EST/9PM MT.
In other AEW Dynamite news, PWInsider are reporting that TNT will air a replay of the first episode at 10AM EST on Saturday 5 October. There's no word on whether or not this will become a regular occurrence and British fans are still waiting for an announcement on UK television, with AEW still to confirm the long-rumoured ITV4 deal.
Among of things, Dynamite's debut is currently set to feature The Elite vs. Chris Jericho and two mystery partners, Nyla Rose vs. Riho for the AEW Women's World Championship, and a Jon Moxley appearance.
