AEW Dynamite To Go Head-To-Head With Family Guy From March 2024
AEW will be warring with Peter Griffin
Nov 23, 2023
Forget the Monday Night Wars, it's time for the Family Guy Wars.
AEW has seen its programming go head-to-head with the likes of WWE’s NXT & SmackDown, the NFL, and presidential debates, but it now has a new challenger when it comes to TV ratings, and it comes in the form of Family Guy.
After more than two decades airing on a Sunday night, FOX has revealed that from March 2024, Family Guy will be moving to Wednesdays. Despite it being a show which can see repeats, and has been on the air for a long time now, it still draws a large viewership to this day, which could spell some trouble for AEW Dynamite, which has aired on a Wednesday night ever since its inception.
Although Family Guy will only air for 30 minutes during AEW Dynamite’s two-hour broadcast, it could still take a chunk of viewers away. At a time when AEW will be looking to renew their TV deal, losing more eyes certainly won’t be ideal for Tony Khan’s flagship weekly show.
