- We're told that AEW and Tony Khan had been working around the clock for the last couple of weeks across various shows due to the implications and travel changes from the hurricanes that drastically affected their plans. AEW ended up being very happy with Title Tuesday. We're told there were many talent missing shows and last minute changes that the company needed to work around over the last two weeks.
- This weekend will be a rarity as Tony Khan isn't expected at the Jacksonville Jaguars game. The Jaguars play in London at 9:30 AM ET.
- Tony Khan's AEW media call is Wednesday afternoon.
- As we revealed in the Fightful Select discord last week, Penelope Ford was backstage recently getting cleared for her return.
- Britt Baker was sidelined with a legit illness and didn't end up traveling out of Florida for them.
