New AEW Revolution 2021 Date Confirmed

While AEW Revolution 2021 was originally scheduled to take place on February 27, All Elite Wrestling officially announced during last night's Dynamite that the pay-per-view had been pushed back to March 7. This will be the company's first-ever Sunday pay-per-view.

Reports first emerged about AEW changing the date of Revolution on January 22.

The young promotion reportedly decided to move the show because they didn't want to go head-to-head with the Canelo Alvarez vs. Avni Yildrim boxing pay-per-view. Saturday, March 6 was also considered as a possible new date but AEW wanted to avoid clashing with UFC 259.

AEW has previously suffered in pay-per-view buys when going head-to-head with other major sports events. Full Gear 2019 was the company's lowest-drawing major show and took place at the same time as Logan Paul vs. KSI II.
