Tony Khan wants to make AEW Dynamite Winter Is Coming an annual event in Dallas.

Since 2020, Winter is Coming has become one of All Elite Wrestling’s signature television specials on Dynamite.

The event has featured Sting’s debut, Kenny Omega winning the AEW World Title and the Hangman Page vs. Bryan Danielson one hour time limit draw.

Speaking on 105.3 The Fan, AEW President Tony Khan revealed his plans for Winter Is Coming, hinting that the event will take place in Texas once again.

He said:

“I really love this tradition we’ve built around the holidays and I love coming out in December to Dallas every year. That viewership is pretty good. People around Dallas, if we’re getting those Nielsen numbers and it’s looking good, I have a good feeling about coming back and bringing Winter is Coming back to Dallas again this year. Keep up the good work watching Wednesday Night Dynamite and Friday Night Rampage. If the numbers on TNT and TBS stay where they’re at and you all do a great job watching the shows and support us, why not, let’s keep it going. I love the Dallas market and I think there’s a good chance we’re going to come back again and do Winter is Coming again this year. Let’s do it.”

Khan later added:

“As we get closer and closer to the big Winter is Coming event, that I think is looking to become hopefully annual around the (Dallas–Fort Worth) Metroplex.”

A date and location have not been officially confirmed for this year’s Winter Is Coming. AEW Dynamite Winter Is Coming 2021 was held at the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas.

The next special edition of AEW Dynamite will be this Wednesday, September 21 with AEW Dynamite Grand Slam. The event will be headlined by Jon Moxley vs. Bryan Danielson in the Grand Slam Tournament of Champions Finals for the vacant AEW World Championship.

Tony Khan recently revealed that the Grand Slam event will be the first $1 million gate for a television taping in AEW history.
