TNT: “We’re back in the Wrestling business!”

The crazy thing about all this is that all Vince had to do was let Cody out of the Stardust gimmick and care about the tag division more.

What time slot will they get on Tuesday? NBA always has TNT games on Tuesday.

I don't ever want to hear a bad thing about The Young Bucks, Cody, Omega or any member of The Elite ever again on this site because they gave us what we've been begging for a long ass time: find a billionaire, convince him to start a rival wrestling company, sign all the talented people, put a show on a major network, and proceed to put a foot on Vince's neck.

First Kofi winning the WWE Championship now AEW officially on TNT restoring the feeling..... 2019 has been something to remember.

Here is an excerpt from the press release describing what kind of atmosphere you can expect when watching:

Focused on producing fast-paced, high-impact competitions, AEW offers fans less scripted, soapy drama, and more athleticism and real sports analytics, bringing a legitimacy to wrestling that it has not previously had. Wrestlers will also be given more freedom to explore their characters and highlight their athletic abilities. Introducing statistics to wrestling for the first time ever, AEW will raise the stakes for its matches and deepen fan engagement by tracking each competitor’s wins and losses as the wrestlers pursue championships, analyzing their moves, assessing damage to their opponents, and providing insights into their winning streaks.

Beautiful. This is what they need to get casual fans.

Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think the show will look like BTE. They're running a second show from Cody and Brandi's Youtube page that takes everything a bit more seriously called "Road To Double or Nothing."

I wouldn't be surprised if those are the videos they showed to WarnerMedia.

Khan already said in an interview the product will be nothing like BTE.

It will actually be interesting to see how Cody and Khan's more traditional wrestling philophies gel with Bucks and Omega's more outside the box shyt...but I think there's room for both. One of the worst things about WWE is how everyone wrestles, talks and looks the same, so them being able to go from some Mid-South style old school wrasslin shyt to Omega on some animie fukkery will at least keep the show fresh.

So the booking itself will tell the stories

Excellent

I just checked this past year's schedule and they only had 9 doubleheader Tuesday's on TNT, the rest of the weeks they put them on NBA TV.

If they really want Tuesday, NBA or AEW can just go to TBS.

Damn, they might as well have just said 'fukk WWE'

Is Smackdown on FOX gonna be Tuesdays?

They should avoid competing with WWE head-to-head right now.
