All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is set to launch its third wrestling show on TNets, and the company will debut “AEW: Collision” in June.
The announcement was made as part of Warner Bros. Discovery's kickoff presentation at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday.
Stars: Phil Brooks, Jim Ross, Steven Haworth
“Collision” will be released on June 17. The two-hour show will air live every Saturday night thereafter and will feature AEW talent like Miro, Samoa Joe, Thunder Rosa, Powerhouse Hobbs, and Andrade El Idolo.
"We're doubling down on wrestling with 'AEW: Collision,' giving fans two more hours each week," said Jason Sarlanis, President of Turner Networks, ID and HLN, Linear and Broadcast. “AEW's roster of talent has expanded so quickly that we felt another night was needed to bring our audience the epic rivalries, unforgettable matches, and stars they love to watch. Adding 'Collision' to our programming mix on TNT will allow us to meet the massive demand we've felt from our hardcore fan base and be the ultimate companion to 'AEW: Dynamite' on TBS."
In addition to "Collision," AEW already has "Dynamite" on TBS on Wednesdays and "Rampage" on TNT on Fridays. The company also has the unscripted series "AEW: All Access," which airs immediately after "Dynamite." That means that with the addition of "Collision," AEW will now be responsible for six hours of weekly programming on TBS and TNT combined.
“With the addition of 'AEW: Collision' on TNT, I am extremely proud that a Turner network is home to Saturday night wrestling for the first time in over two decades,” said Tony Khan, CEO, GM and Head. from AEW Creatives. “The debut of 'Collision' is significant across numerous sectors, including television, wrestling, entertainment and sports, and reinforces AEW as the bold property we envisioned when we launched in 2019. 'Collision' will deliver live all Saturday nights more of what fans and viewers tell us what they want: athleticism, big personalities, exciting storylines and hard-hitting wrestling action, all of which have become synonymous with AEW."
