More on AEW’s “Winter is Coming” Dynamite Show

Pro Wrestling Tees announced on Instagram that Sting’s new official AEW branded shirt managed to quickly break the company’s all-time record for most shirts sold within a single day.

PWInsider’s Mike Johnson reported that Jon Moxley’s pre-match promo contained a reference in tribute to the late Pat Paterson, which was the closing line of “it’s time to make them go absolutely banana.” This was a famous phrase Patterson would say to wrestlers backstage prior to their matches when he wanted them to deliver a big reaction from the crowd.

Johnson also reported that Kenny Omega did not work at any of Impact Wrestling’s recent set of television tapings. It was reported that content for Omega’s scheduled appearance on next week’s episode of Impact! will be filmed separately and inserted into the show.
