Matt Hardy said that a monthly pay-per-view doesn’t give certain stories time to develop and grow. While AEW has been known for successfully telling long-term stories, the promotion has also been known to drag some stories out for far too long. Given the uptake in value that comes with monthly pay-per-views, Hardy said he could see it happening.

“Something I’ll throw out is you could maybe keep it fresh if the rosters are big enough on ‘Dynamite’ and on ‘Collision,’ maybe you could have in January a ‘Dynamite’ pay-per-view, February a ‘Collision’ pay-per-view, March, ‘Dynamite,’ and you alternate each and every month,” Hardy said. “Maybe one of those months, you have ‘Dynamite’ versus ‘Collision’ and it’s like the World Series pay-per-view of pro wrestling.”

The idea of alternate pay-per-views between AEW’s two major brands, with a brand-versus-brand event in the midst, is similar to WWE’s pay-per view schedule following the brand split in 2016. “WWE SmackDown” and “WWE Raw” wrestlers faced off against each other in brand vs. brand competition at Survivor Series, but that format ended last year.
