AEW: Konosuke Takeshita on Future Return, Oct. 19th Dynamite to be Preempted, Dark Elevation Results

Konosuke Takeshita Comments on Hopeful of AEW Return in Future

Cultaholic held a recent interview with Konosuke Takeshita. One of the topics discussed included Takeshita’s thoughts on him currently being hopeful to return to AEW later this year and currently not being interested in working for WWE.

“To be honest, now I’m not interested in WWE. My next goal is more fights in AEW I hope. So I have to go to back to Japan in August and September. Maybe, not decided yet, I hope I go back to America in October. Then if I stay in the US I can come to the UK more times. From Japan to the UK is so far but US to UK is maybe seven hours. It’s possible.”

Major League Baseball released the full broadcast schedule for this year’s post-season playoffs and World Series games on FOX, FS1, ESPN, ESPN 2, ABC, and TBS.

In regards to AEW, the October 19th episode of AEW Dynamite is currently scheduled to be preempted due to TBS airing Game 1 of the American League Championship Series during AEW’s usual time slot that night.

AEW could also face the possibility of another preemption taking place for their October 26th episode of Dynamite should this year’s ALCS require a Game 7 to be played.
