Warner Bros Discovery is moving ahead with a 'behind-the-scenes' documentary series focussed on AEW.
In May, AEW sent out a survey announcing the series was in the works and asking fans to help name it. AEW also revealed that the show will "track our core cast on the road at AEW events as they try to hold onto the titles they have or win back the ones they’ve lost, with everything culminating at the biggest Pay-Per-View event of the year."
According to a report from Fightful Select, AEW staff and talent were informed this past week that filming for the project will begin on November 2 when AEW Dynamite emanates from the Chesapeake Arena in Baltimore. It will continue for six weeks until Winter is Coming on December 14 from Garland, Texas. Tony Khan will serve as Executive Producer. The project will be a collaboration between Warner Bros Discovery and Shed Media. It is expected to air sometime in 2023.
Warner Bros Discovery US Networks Group chair and chief content office Kathleen Finch spoke to the Hollywood Reporter earlier this month about looking to create AEW content "that's not in a wrestling ring."
"We really play in the sports space. One of the things that we’re doing around sports is creating shoulder programming to hold onto those fans. AEW pulls huge numbers, so we are working with the wrestling team to figure out what new kind of content can we build that’s not in a wrestling ring," she said.
