This week's AEW Dynamite opened with a violent grudge match between Eddie Kingston and Lance Archer. Unfortunately a chunk of AEW's audience was unable to watch it, as reports of outages for the TNT network on Hulu, YouTube TV and the TNT app quickly started popping up online. The match ended with Kingston winning (thanks to an assist from Allie), and by the time Darby Allin and Sting cut their taped promo about their upcoming Street Fight some fans began reporting that their feeds had returned.

There's no word yet on what caused the problem across the different platforms. You can see the fan reactions in the list below.

Statement From Tony Khan

I’m so sorry that fans streaming #AEWDynamite were unable to see the opening of tonight’s show in their apps. TNT fixed the issue & got it working again. Archer vs. Kingston was a tremendous match. After this show we’ll put it on YouTube, please enjoy the rest of this great show! https://t.co/9R3KZESqDV

Looks like Hulu TV and YouTube TV and other streaming services have a TNT outage. I have cable and am still seeing #AEWDynamite

Fine on Sling Too

Sounds like people are having watching AEW Dynamite on Hulu. Is it working for everyone else? It's been fine on Sling. #AEWDynamite @WrestlingInc
