I can almost hear people commenting very angry things on this already, but Fite TV, one of the world’s leading streaming services has announced that AEW: Dynamite will be available for UK fans if they pay a $4.99 a month subscription.
?BREAKING NEWS?

?@AEWrestling‘s weekly show #Dynamite is coming to #FITETV.
?️ #FITE is ALSO introducing #AEWPLUS, a subscription service that will allow you to see every weekly show for $4.99 a month.

It all got rather confusing as the statement says it is available in the UK and then FITE said it wasn’t. It has since been cleared up that it will in fact be available to fans in the UK.
This is presumable the “live viewing solution” that Tony Khan mentioned earlier when it was first announced that the show would not air live on ITV, a free TV station in the UK.
We’ll work together to ensure there will always be a free to air broadcast of the most recent episode of AEW: Dynamite before Saturday PPVs including Full Gear. We’ll also be announcing a live viewing solution soon for the UK + many other countries with great AEW fans. Thank you!

Khan has since explained why the decision has been made:
AEW Dynamite episodes will stream live in UK on @FiteTV for $4.99 month/subscription or $2.99/episode. We can’t broadcast live free to air in the UK due to different ad break schedules than in US. ITV + ITV4 will show free to air replays making our show available to most UK fans!
