AEW Grand Slam Australia Not Planned To Air On PPV

All Elite Wrestling will soon make their first-ever trip to Oceania, with Grand Slam Australia on February 15. But the show is not set to air on pay-per-view.

Grand Slam was originally set for Suncorp Stadium but has been moved to Brisbane Entertainment Centre with slow ticket sales believed to be the factor behind the venue change.

As seen on the January 15 edition of AEW Dynamite, AEW announced that Grand Slam will air on TNT and Max at 8 pm ET on February 15, meaning the show will be released on tape delay. Whilst no official reason has been given as to why the show will be taped, it merely seems a logistical move, with the live show starting at 5:30 pm AEST or 2:30 am Eastern Time.

Only one match has been confirmed thus far for Grand Slam, with Australia’s own Toni Storm set to face former protege Mariah May for the AEW Women’s World Championship, with Storm receiving the title opportunity after winning the women’s Casino Gauntlet on January 15.
