AEW President Tony Khan made his weekly appearance on Busted Open Radio on Friday to promote tonight’s episode of Dynamite on TNT.

During his discussion with Dave LaGreca and Mark Henry, Tony Khan announced AEW Dynamite in three weeks will take place on a Saturday night. The show will be live and will feature a big main event.

The Saturday, June 26th edition of AEW Dynamite will feature AEW World Champion Kenny Omega defending against Jungle Boy.

Jungle Boy earned the title shot by winning the Casino Battle Royale last weekend at AEW Double or Nothing.

This match was initially scheduled for next week’s show, but Tony Khan wanted to make the June 26th Dynamite a special one.

Kenny Omega and Jungle Boy now have a few extra weeks to prepare for their match. This is good news for both competitors, however Omega was not happy that he learned about his title defense being rescheduled from a ‘local wrestling tabloid.’

Why do I have to get this kind of info from a local wrestling tabloid? I’m not happy with this. More importantly, neither is Mr. Barry.

Tony Khan mentioned that Saturday Night Dynamites are typically newsworthy. Last time, Brodie Lee captured the TNT Championship from Cody Rhodes in Dramatic fashion.

Khan also AEW will hold quarterly Saturday Night Supercards in the future, a reference to the AEW specials that will air on TNT next year once Dynamite and Rampage move to TBS in 2022.
