Confirmed to be premiering on TNT on Friday, Aug. 13 at 10 p.m. E.T., AEW Rampage and AEW Dynamite have been confirmed to be moving to TBS in early 2020. As for what we can expect to see from the new show, Tony Khan gave a few more details to Busted Open Radio earlier this month. “They asked at one point if I wanted to do three hours of Dynamite when it came up about doing a third hour,” Khan said. “And I said I really believe in doing it on another night. This time slot, I think, is really good for the fans to keep a great night of wrestling fresh on Friday nights. And, so, at 10 pm, you’re going to have a great option to come watch Rampage.”
