Cody Says No Plans To Add Third Hour To Dynamite
Cody Rhodes has confirmed that All Elite Wrestling will not be adding a third hour, despite comments he recently made during an interview with ESPN.
Earlier this week, Cody was asked about future plans for AEW’s broadcast schedule. He spoke on plans to add more content, following an announcement earlier this year that Warnermedia has agreed produce a second weekly show.
I think probably in four to six weeks I’ll have a firmer answer on that. That’s still very much the case. The format of that show might be different. It might rely on the production we have in place already, it might not. I know we’ve got all kinds of different plans converging on what we want. The goal of what the third hour would be is to showcase a different crop of talent from AEW. It’s very hard when you have this much talent and you only have a single weekly show. It’s hard to keep people in the mix. As a wrestler, it’s even hard to train for. The only way to train for wrestling is still wrestling. It’s been an adjustment, even without the pandemic.
This past January, WarnerMedia and All Elite Wrestling announced a contract extension agreeing to air Dynamite on TNT through 2023. The announcement also noted that AEW would launch a second weekly show.
