AEW is back today (Sat., Oct. 17, 2026) with WrestleDream, its annual celebration of Antonio Inoki’s life and career. For the fourth edition of the PPV event, AEW is Orlando, Florida’s Addition Financial Arena.
Because it’s football season and AEW events will be on Saturdays for the next several months, WrestleDream gets started with a Tailgate Brawl special on TNT and HBO Max. There’s also a Buy In pre-show that streams on YouTube and many of AEW’s other online channels, but that will feature interviews,
replays, and talking heads. The two (as of midnight) pre-show matches will be on Tailgate Brawl. We’ll have it here. Both pre-shows start at 7 p.m. EDT.
The main card starts an hour later, and can be purchased on HBO Max, Amazon, YouTube, PPV.com, and DAZN, or you can buy it on traditional PPV. In Canada, the UK, and other international markets, it will be available on the new MyAEW.com service.
We’ll have play-by-play coverage of WrestleDream from Tailgate Brawl through to the main event in our live blog here. To help you get you ready, we have predictions from our staff here, and a preview of the entire show here.
