AEW is expanding as they prepare to launch another primetime show, Collision, which will air every Saturday night on TNT.

With AEW President Tony Khan booking three AEW shows in addition to ROH and other non-wrestling projects, he has made some notable creative hires.

Jimmy Jacobs, a former WWE/Impact Wrestling writer who most notably worked with Chris Jericho during his WWE run where he did “The List” and was aligned with Kevin Owens, has joined AEW as a coach/producer.

Kevin Matthews, a former Impact Wrestling star and WWE developmental talent who worked for Impact from 2017 to 2019, was working Wednesday’s Dynamite event, according to PWInsider.

He had previously worked on Dark tapings. They were told, however, that he is now working for the company behind the scenes, though the exact position is unknown.
