Tony Khan implements major change to AEW Dynamite after 305+ days

This year's first episode of AEW Dynamite implemented a major change. Tony Khan has tweaked a long-standing part of the show, with this being its theme song.

In early 2024, the promotion also revamped the show's identity, including its logo, stage design, and theme song. The Wednesday show featured "Pop" by their music producer, Mikey Rukus.

Earlier in the night, some reports mentioned that a new theme song for the show was seemingly in the works. Tonight, this was confirmed as Dynamite: Fight for the Fallen opened up with the 1982 classic I'm So Excited by the Pointer Sisters.

The new opening video can be found below.

This news comes at an interesting time, as Tony Khan recently announced that AEW Collision will revert to its original theme song. Elton John's Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting will once more open the promotion's Saturday show. Back in July, the company suddenly moved away from the iconic song, but it seems that Khan has decided to bring it back due to popular demand.

It seems that AEW is deciding to go with these two classics moving forward. With the simulcast on Max, they'll be entering a new era.
