AEW Forced to Revamp Strategy Due to 2024 WWE SummerSlam

The new era of WWE is poised for what could be its biggest summer yet, while AEW celebrates its fifth anniversary with significant developments to avoid another major mishap.

The SummerSlam Premium Live Event is slated to unfold at the illustrious Cleveland Browns Stadium on Saturday, August 3rd and there is definitely a lot of hype for the event.

According to PWInsider, the August 3rd edition of AEW Collision will be shifted to air earlier in the day to avoid direct competition from the SummerSlam Premium Live Event, which will air in the evening. It is to be noted that AEW will hold the Collision tapings on Thursday, August 1, 2024, at the Esports Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

”AEW Collision on Saturday 8/3 will be time shifted to air early and away from WWE’s Summerslam, which will take place that evening.”

The WWE SummerSlam Premium Live Event has also garnered impressive ticket sales for its first week. Regardless, we will have to wait and see whether SummerSlam will end up breaking records in the end.
