"With the addition of 'AEW: Collision' on TNT, I'm extremely proud that a Turner network will be the home of Saturday night wrestling for the first time in more than two decades," said Khan. "The debut of 'Collision' is significant across numerous sectors, including television, wrestling, entertainment and sports, and reinforces AEW as the bold property we envisioned when we launched in 2019. 'Collision' will deliver live every Saturday night more of what fans and viewers tell us they want – athleticism, big personalities, exciting storylines, and hard-hitting wrestling action, all of which have become synonymous with AEW."

Jason Sarlanis, President, Turner Networks, ID and HLN, linear & streaming, added, "We're doubling-down on wrestling with 'AEW: Collision,' which gives fans two more hours every week. AEW's roster of talent has expanded so quickly that we felt it needed another night to bring our audience the epic rivalries, unforgettable matches and stars they love to watch. Adding 'Collision' to our programming mix on TNT will allow us to satisfy the massive demand we've felt from our hardcore fanbase and be the ultimate complement to 'AEW: Dynamite' on TBS."
