It appears as if AEW is planning a night of title fights for a special Saturday night edition of programming.
According to Wrestling Observer’s Andrew Zarian, AEW is planning a ‘Battle of The Belts’ TNT special on Saturday, January 8.
The report states that they cannot use the name ‘Clash of Champions’ due to WWE owning the rights to the show and will instead reportedly honor the former NWA/CFW event.
