Basketball, I’m guessing. I created this post as a reference, that way people aren’t constantly asking about it. Who am I kidding? That will still happen.
Will AEW do better or worse numbers?
Will NXT counter-program? lol

Yep basketball. I'm curious if they shift dark or do something else for YouTube those weeks.

Meltzy's now reporting that new-to-air Dynamites will be televised on consecutive nights August 26 and 27. On Wednesday, AEW will air after the NBA game with another new show airing on the 27th at the reported time.

It's less rad if that means that we'd have to wait a week and a half after that 2nd show... |

Do some big angle that requires people to tune in on Thursday for the payoff. |

Absolutely, my point is I hope that doesn't count as the next weeks episode. It'd be pretty rough to basically go off air for a week when they're trying to build a fanbase. I'd get it if TNT pushed them to TruTV or something, but going almost 2 weeks without a show would hurt. |

Which is freaking awesome. |

Given that the missed week would be the week before all out I can't imagine they would count it as that weeks. That would be a very weird and probably terrible decision

Everyone be sure to tune in. This is an incredible opportunity for AEW to prove its drawing power. If they can bring 750k or better each week with a great demo showing, it will go along way especially with the new TNT management. My real hope is that due to it not being in direct competition with any wrestling on Saturday or the Thursday they pull over a million. Go along way to them getting a second show!!

Imagine if they pull in their biggest number. My expectations are that they'll do either the same number or less, but as an "AEW shill" what choice do I have but pull for them? lol |
