First AEW Tapings At Universal Studios Confirmed For This Weekend
Two sessions of Dark are set to be taped on September 11
AEW have officially announced their first set of tapings at Universal Studios, Florida.
All Elite Wrestling will take over Soundstage 19 on the Universal Studios backlot in Orlando on Saturday September 11, where they will host two three-hour sessions of wrestling.
Taking to Twitter, AEW posted the following:
“Be part of a live studio audience for #AEW action at @UniversalORL Florida, This Saturday, Sept. 11:
- Session 1: 12 pm-3 pm
- Session 2: 4:30 pm-7:30 pm
With limited seating available, and tickets are available for both sessions NOW at http://AEWTIX.COM"
The sessions will be AEW: Dark tapings, with news of AEW moving the show to a specific set confirmed in recent weeks.
According to the graphic AEW used to promote the tapings, the first two sets of tapings are set to feature Eddie Kingston, Thunder Rosa, Orange Cassidy, Wardlow, and Team Taz’s Ricky Starks and Powerhouse Hobbs in action, amongst many others.
With AEW now producing four separate shows a week (Dynamite, rampage, Dark, Dark: Elevation) the move to a separate fixed set seems like a no-brainer. Tony Khan has stated that Dark will still be taped in big arenas from time-to-time, but for now Dark is set for Universal Studios, carrying on a tradition started by WCW and TNA.
