The new year is quickly approaching and it looks like AEW will be looking to kick things off in a big way. It was recently reported that Warner Bros. Discovery and Tony Khan have decided to change the look of AEW’s shows and that the changes are expected to go into effect in January.
Tony Khan recently spoke to TV Insider about the changes coming to AEW and he confirmed that fans can expect to see a new presentation on the January 4th episode of Dynamite in Seattle.
“I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag necessarily, especially so close to the big day. But at the start of 2023, we’re going to open the year on Wednesday, January 4 with the first Dynamite in Seattle, marking a full year of Dynamite on TBS. We’ll definitely have a new look, to say the least.
I’m excited about it. I think it’s a nice thing to present to the fans, but frankly, I’ve found more so than ever, the more you talk about these things. When you build them up, you don’t want to create expectations that are impossible. I will say the set will be beautiful though. The look of Rampage will also be different. This will affect the way people view AEW on Wednesdays and Fridays in terms of presentation with the set and the show with the same great action.”
AEW Dynamite originally premiered on TNT in October of 2019 and has mostly stuck to the same type of look since the show hit the air, so it will be interesting to see what the company has in store when the new year comes. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
