AEW Blood & Guts 2026 Start Time, Channel and Announced Matches
Quick answer — AEW Dynamite: Blood & Guts is on Wednesday, Nov. 4, at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT on TBS, from the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Fla. That time comes from The Futon Critic's TBS listing; AEW hasn't posted its own preview for the night yet.
What time does AEW Blood & Guts start?
The Futon Critic lists the show under the title "Blood and Guts 2026" at 8 p.m. ET on TBS, the same slot Dynamite holds every week. TVmaze, which we use only as a cross-check, has the same date and 8 p.m. start and shows a two-hour slot. Neither of them is an AEW announcement, so treat the time as "listed" until AEW's preview goes up. AEW usually posts those on the morning of the show.
One number to ignore: AEW's event calendar shows "7:30pm ET" for the Jacksonville date. That's the listing for people going to the building. We re-read the calendar on Tuesday, Oct. 27, at 4:40 a.m. ET, and the TV time is the 8 p.m. one.
| What | Eastern | Central | Where |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dynamite: Blood & Guts | 8 p.m. | 7 p.m. | TBS |
| Arena listing (people in the building) | 7:30 p.m. | 6:30 p.m. | VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena |
We are not printing a Pacific time. Nothing we read gives one for this date.
Which matches has AEW announced?
Two matches, both announced in the past week. AEW's Oct. 21 Dynamite results set the men's match after Steven Borden returned and made the challenge, and its Oct. 24 Collision results say AEW later confirmed the women's match. Fightful's lineup for the men's match is the same as AEW's.
| Match | Side one | Side two |
|---|---|---|
| Men's Blood & Guts | Will Ospreay, Adam Copeland, Steven Borden, The Young Bucks, Darby Allin | Don Callis Family: Kazuchika Okada, Kyle Fletcher, Wardlow, Kevin Knight, Mark Davis, Jake Doyle |
| Women's Blood & Guts | Willow Nightingale, Wrathlander (Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron), The Brawling Birds | Triangle of Madness (Julia Hart, Skye Blue, Thekla) and Divine Dominion (Megan Bayne and Lena Kross) |
On AEW's lineup, Ospreay is the AEW World Champion, Allin is the TNT Champion, the Young Bucks are the AEW World Tag Team Champions and Okada is the AEW International Champion. That's how AEW's Oct. 21 write-up describes them. Cards can change, and we only list what AEW has put out.
What is a Blood & Guts match?
AEW's own teaser for the men's match is "One Cage. Two Rings." That's all AEW has said about the setup in the posts we read, so we don't describe the rules beyond that. The teams are the matches above; the show is the Wednesday Dynamite, not a separate event.
What channel is Blood & Guts on?
TBS. AEW's Oct. 21 Dynamite preview put that week's show on "TBS and HBO Max", and Dynamite has been on both all season, but we haven't seen AEW say the same for Nov. 4 specifically. If you don't have TBS, check HBO Max on the night. Our AEW Dynamite page has the channel and the weeks Dynamite moves.
Is WWE NXT on at the same time?
It looks that way. The Futon Critic and TVmaze both list NXT on Wednesday, Nov. 4, at 8 p.m. ET on The CW, instead of its usual Tuesday. Wrestling Inc. reports the move is tied to The CW's election coverage; we didn't find an announcement from WWE or The CW, so we'd call it listed, not confirmed. The details are on our NXT page.
What else is coming up for AEW?
Full Gear is Saturday, Nov. 14, in Phoenix, per AEW's Oct. 21 preview. Collision is listed on Saturday, Oct. 31, at 8 p.m. ET on TNT from St. Louis; see the Collision page. The whole week is on the WWE and AEW TV schedule, and the last big AEW card is in our WrestleDream results. Current belt holders are on the AEW champions page.
