This announcement confirms some long-standing rumors, namely that the show will happen on Wednesdays every week, and it will notably debut the same week that WWE’s SmackDown LIVE debuts on their new home at FOX.
Interestingly, no name has been given for the show, referred to only as “All Elite Wrestling live weekly series.” It’s long been rumored that the show will be called “Wednesday Night Dynamite” based on trademark filings, but that has yet to be confirmed.
A trailer was also released for the show, which you can watch below:
