New Year’s Smash will be the Worlds End fallout episode of Dynamite, with that pay-per-view set to be held at NOW Arena in Hoffman Estates, Illinois on Saturday, December 27.
This marks AEW’s second-ever event at Liberty First Credit Union Arena. The promotion made its Nebraska debut earlier this year with the venue hosting a March episode of Dynamite, along with two one-hour Slam Dunk Collision specials that were filmed there that same night.
With this show now announced, AEW will begin rolling out its dates for January 2026 soon. A February visit to Australia is already confirmed for early next year. There will be two shows on that Australia trip: Grand Slam Australia 2026 and a House Rules live event.
