AEW is also holding AEW TV tapings this week in Jacksonville, Florida at Daily’s Place on TNT.
Ariel Helwani of ESPN noted that the two companies are staying at the hotel. He wrote the following:
“Two major events are happening in Jacksonville this week: UFC 249 and AEW tapings. Coincidentally, all fighters/wrestlers and personnel for both orgs are staying at the same hotel in Jacksonville, I’m told. That could make for a fun time.”
