The electricity of the Homecoming edition of AEW Dynamite has been viewed as a crucial moment in the Wednesday Night War. A boisterous crowd contributed to a memorable night of in-ring action on TNT. For Tony Khan, this positive momentum alleviated some of the pressure after NXT led the ratings battle at the end of 2019.
With this show, AEW presented a loaded episode of Dynamite that gave fans a renewed sense of confidence and optimism regarding the direction of the company. The main event of The Elite (Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks) facing the Death Triangle (PAC and the Lucha Bros) stole the show.
This incredible contest was just what AEW needed to remind fans of the show's excellent wrestling. It also restored Dynamite's status as a must-see program. Week after week, AEW continued to offer similarly star-studded main events.
Sure enough, in the days that followed this episode, TNT and AEW reached an agreement that extended Dynamite’s tenure on the network through 2023. This contract was a turning point in the Wednesday Night War. AEW took this sign of faith and ran with it. The company hasn't looked back ever since.
