Some pretty big news for both AEW and wwe
Wwe is doing fans for money in the bank in texas this july, and then summerslam in vegas in august, the si article also says wwe is expected to go back to fans after Mitb leading up to summerslam for raw and smackdown, no mention of nxt but it's in florida where everything is open now, so wouldnt surprise me
Aew is moving to tbs next year, likely due to TNT getting the nhl, is also adding a new show on fridays this august, aew rampage, it's at 10 est so no overlap with smackdown, that starts on tnt but then also moves to tbs next year
TK also said they were adding 4 new 'big event' shows on tnt every year starting in 2022
I'm guessing the big event shows are just like the themes dynamites they have now, but more structured in their time table, and as mini ppvs, that should be good, the one area dynamite struggles is the few weeks post ppv are usually a bit filler, since it's another 3 months till their next ppv, now that they have these things as a midpoint between the PPVs it should help with that
