AEW Dynamite History
AEW Dynamite made its debut on October 2, 2019. It is currently a flagship program under the AEW promotion. Since the final episode of WCW Monday Nitro on March 26, 2001, AEW Dynamite was the first professional wrestling program to air on TNT. AEW which was itself launched in January 2019, actually wanted AEW Dynamite to be a Tuesday event and hence filed for Tuesday Night Dynamite as a name for the television show. They however filed for an additional trademark in June 2019, this time for Wednesday Night Dynamite.
The show was confirmed to start in October by Chris Jericho. AEW Dynamite was broadcasted live on October 2 for the first time from the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. It is said that the show had sold out all its tickets within 3 hours of going on sale. The decision to shift from Tuesday to Wednesday was made because the broadcasting channel, TNT, airs the National Basketball Association (NBA) on Tuesday and Thursday nights. Also, Thursdays were not taken into consideration because it would have competed with Tony Khan's NFL franchise as National Football League is broadcasted Thursdays.
AEW Dynamite faced competition after WWE's announcement to move their WWE Network show NXT to the USA Network broadcast it live for a two-hour window in the same time slot as AEW Dynamite. To promote their show, AEW even took to YouTube with their trademark "Road to" series with hopes to arouse anticipation for the debut broadcast of the show. And it clearly worked as the AEW Dynamite results on its opening day were humongous. The show received an average viewership of 1.409 million viewers, making AEW Dynamite the largest television debut on TNT in five years. Wwe NXT on the other hand only averaged 891,000 viewers on October 2.
Since March 18, 2020, AEW has been airing empty arena shows from Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
