Production

Background

AEW Dynamite, also known as Wednesday Night Dynamite, is the flagship weekly professional wrestling television program of the American company All Elite Wrestling (AEW). AEW Collision, also known as Saturday Night Collision, is AEW's secondary program that premiered in June 2023. On April 15, 2025, AEW filed to trademark "Summer Blockbuster".[2] On April 17, the company announced that Summer Blockbuster would be a television special, airing live as a four-hour marathon of back-to-back special episodes of AEW's weekly television programs, Dynamite and Collision, with both programs airing on TBS and simulcast on Max. Dynamite aired in its usual 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) slot while Collision, which normally airs on Saturdays on TNT, aired immediately after Dynamite at 10:00 p.m. ET. The event was scheduled for Wednesday, June 11, 2025, at the Theater of the Clouds at Moda Center in Portland, Oregon.[3]

On April 13, 2026, AEW announced that the 2026 edition of Summer Blockbuster would take place on June 10, 2026 and June 11, 2026 at the Andrew J. Brady Music Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, marking the first time that the event was held on two nights.[4]
