AEW Expected To Deal With Cold Weather Tonight

All Elite Wrestling may have jinxed themselves by naming this week’s AEW Dynamite “Winter is Coming”. The crew may be in for a difficult night as forecasts call for the show to be plagued by cold weather.

Dave Meltzer reported on Twitter that it is expected to be 44 degrees Fahrenheit tonight in Jacksonville. That would be about 6 degrees Celsius for us non-Americans. Given that AEW films Dynamite in an outdoor venue, the deck will be stacked against tonight’s show.

It is expected to be 44 degrees when Omega & Moxley hit the ring tonight for an outdoor show. This may be the biggest test of both men's career, and even more, of the limited audience. That's even colder than Sammartino-Morales and they couldn't even get a lot of heat for that.

Jon Moxley and Kenny Omega are scheduled to have the biggest match in Dynamite history tonight. After winning the Eliminator Tournament, Omega will challenge Moxley for the AEW World Championship tonight. This will be his first shot at the title.

Extreme cold weather has caused fans to not cheer as hard for shows in the past. However, this is the risk you take when you film outdoors. Sometimes the elements work against you.
