In an interview with PWInsider, Tony Khan spoke about NXT moving to Tuesday nights and if that will change AEW’s approach to how they write episodes of AEW Dynamite. Here are highlights:
On having Mike Tyson come in for Dynamite and not overshadow the rest of the card: “Tony Khan: Well when we have a lot of great in-ring stuff on the show, I think it’s great to be able to bring in a mainstream celebrity, in this case a mainstream athlete, somebody who has a big fan base and hopefully makes new fans. We’ve got a great wrestling product and we’re going to have great wrestling matches – this is a great example of a show with some great matches on paper – very excited about the main event, the Trios match.

[Hour One] The show opened with Christian heading to the ring for the opening match. Tony Schiavone, Jim Ross, and Excalibur joined on commentary. He was followed by Frankie Kazarian.

The big thing to happen for the women s division this February has obviously been the AEW Women s World Championship Eliminator Tournament, a 16-woman tournament to determine who will face Hikaru Shida at Revolution this upcoming Saturday.
