Tony Khan has been actively bolstering its creative team in preparation for the launch of AEW Collision, a new two-hour program set to debut this Saturday on TNT. Bryan Danielson also recently confirmed his involvement in the creative process.

Jacobs brings a wealth of experience to AEW, having previously worked as a WWE writer from 2015 to 2017. However, he was fired for taking pictures with members of The Bullet Club during a "invasion" angle on WWE Raw for Being The Elite.

Fans eagerly await the official announcement and look forward to witnessing the impact Jacobs will have on AEW.
