All Elite Wrestling will soon announce a brand-new third live television show that will begin airing this June, according to Andrew Zarian of The Mat Men Podcast.
The new show, titled ‘AEW Collision’, was recently trademarked by All Elite Wrestling with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for entertainment services. It has been reported that the show will air on Saturday nights, beginning June. Zerian noted that he’d been told the show will air in a two hour format from 8-10pm ET. The official announcement of the show is expected to be made in May.
“Here is what I understand. This show looks to be starting on June 17 in Chicago…A Saturday night show. I’m hearing it’s a two-hour show from 8-10 [pm EST] on Saturdays. Maybe I’m wrong on that date, then. Don’t hold me to. I believe I heard it was June. What are you going to do a Saturday show in the same building and then go back on Dynamite? Maybe I’m wrong here. Now, I’m very confused by this because I had something different in my notes. I’ll check on it. Either way, I heard it’s June. I heard the announcement is coming in mid-May,”

The television upfronts, where all the US networks announce their new programming, takes place in a month just before the Collision debut show.
A UK airing of the show has not yet been discussed although more news on this is expected after the official announcement. ITV currently carry all AEW programming in the United Kingdom, except for pay-per-views which are available on FITE.
