Tonight’s guide: TNA puts two championships on the line, ROH returns to HonorClub without a publicly accessible advance card, and the weekend schedule now includes four advertised Collision matches, two WWE title bouts on SmackDown, NXT Halloween Havoc, CMLL’s Día de Muertos show and AAA’s cruiserweight open challenge.

The largest news update is still developing. Riyadh Season confirmed Wednesday that WWE Crown Jewel would leave its original stadium and that current ticket buyers would receive refunds. Wrestling Observer reporting now identifies Kingdom Arena as the replacement. WWE and Riyadh Season had not updated their public event pages with that venue by this edition’s deadline, so the building is a reported location, not an official confirmation.

As we look forward to TNA Impact October 29, fans can expect thrilling matches and unexpected twists in the storyline.

This Late Bell does not repeat Wednesday night’s Dynamite results. Those results, including Queen Aminata’s TBS Championship victory, are in the Phoenix’s October 29 Morning Bell. Readers who want the earlier Crown Jewel announcement and refund details can also read Wednesday’s Late Bell.

Wrestling viewing guide in Eastern Time

Streaming access can depend on a viewer’s country and subscription. The times above are the advertised Eastern times available at the reporting deadline.

Confirmed: TNA offers two title matches tonight

TNA’s official preview lists five matches and an appearance by world champion Leon Slater for tonight’s episode from the Dothan Civic Center in Alabama. The program begins at 9 p.m. on AMC and AMC+.

• TNA X Division Championship: Amazing Red defends against Cedric Alexander.
• TNA Knockouts Television Championship: M by Elegance defends against Jada Stone.
• Slaughterhouse syX Match: The Hardys face syX.
• Singles match: John Skyler faces AJ Francis.
• Singles match: Elijah faces Ryan Nemeth.
• Segment: TNA World Champion Leon Slater is scheduled to speak.

Alexander earned the X Division opportunity in a four-way match last week. The Knockouts Television bout comes after M by Elegance declared herself the new leader of the Elegance Brand. Neither result should be assumed before the program airs.

The Slaughterhouse syX match carries the most uncertainty because TNA has promoted the stipulation as syX’s territory without providing a complete public rules explanation. The responsible preview is to report the advertised match and let the television presentation explain the format. It would be speculation to describe weapons, a cage or a finish that TNA has not announced.

Reported: Kingdom Arena identified for Crown Jewel

Riyadh Season’s official notice confirms only that Crown Jewel is moving, buyers will receive full refunds and tickets are expected to be offered again. It did not name a replacement building or give a reason for the move.

Wrestling Observer’s report identifies Kingdom Arena in Riyadh as the intended replacement. That report is a meaningful update, but it is not the same as a new WWE event page or a fresh announcement from Riyadh Season. WWE’s original corporate announcement and Netflix’s event guide were still showing Riyadh Season Stadium at KAFD when checked Thursday.

The show remains advertised for Saturday, November 7, at noon Eastern. Until an organizer updates the venue publicly, fans should use their original point of purchase and official event channels for refund and ticket instructions. Reports connecting the move to security concerns or ticket sales remain explanations offered by outside sources, not a reason stated in Riyadh Season’s notice.

Confirmed: Collision expands to four advertised matches

AEW taped its Halloween edition of Collision after Dynamite in St. Louis. Because the episode does not air until Saturday, this preview excludes taping results and surprise appearances. The advertised lineup reported by Pro Wrestling Dot Net is:

• Artist of Stardom Championship: Triangle of Madness defends against Hazuki, Koguma and Fuwa-chan.
• Singles match: Ilja Dragunov faces The Beast Mortos.
• Singles match: Tommaso Ciampa faces Matt Sydal.
• Trios match: The Cut faces Orange Cassidy, Roderick Strong and Kyle O’Reilly of The Conglomeration.

The show airs at 8 p.m. Saturday on TNT and HBO Max. The Stardom title match is supported by AEW’s official announcement. The other three matches were announced during Wednesday’s Dynamite broadcast and were subsequently listed by multiple wrestling news outlets.

AEW Dynamite turns toward Blood and Guts

AEW’s next Wednesday special is Blood and Guts from Jacksonville, Florida. AEW’s official Dynamite recap says both men’s and women’s Blood and Guts matches are set for November 4. The women’s match has Triangle of Madness and Divine Dominion against the Brawling Birds, Wrathlander and Willow Nightingale.

The promotion has not yet posted its usual full preview article for the November 4 broadcast. The event page lists Jacksonville and a 7:30 p.m. local arena time, while AEW’s weekly television normally starts at 8 p.m. Eastern on TBS and HBO Max. The Late Bell will use the television start time once AEW posts the complete program preview.

SmackDown: two title matches and a Danhausen theme

WWE’s current SmackDown page confirms “Danhausen’s Very Nice, Very Evil SmackDown” for Friday at 8 p.m. on USA Network. Two championship matches are presently listed:

• Sami Zayn defends the Undisputed WWE Championship against Trick Williams.
• Chelsea Green defends the WWE Women’s Championship against Nikki Bella.

Earlier television promotion connected Rey Fenix and Ricky Saints to another title match, but that bout was not on WWE’s current official episode page during this check. It should therefore be treated as pending rather than guaranteed. This edition does not call it canceled because WWE has not issued a cancellation notice.

NXT Halloween Havoc has six matches

WWE’s official Halloween Havoc preview lists six matches for Saturday at 7 p.m. on The CW and ESPN Unlimited. Grayson Waller defends the NXT Championship against Tony D’Angelo, while Kelani Jordan defends the NXT Women’s Championship against Wren Sinclair.

The remaining matches are Zilla Fatu vs. Charlie Dempsey under a Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal stipulation; Zaria vs. Izzi Dame in a non-title match; Tavion Heights vs. Myles Borne in a Weapons Wild match; and Shiloh Hill vs. Naraku. Danhausen is the advertised host. Calling Zaria’s match a title defense would be inaccurate because WWE specifically labels it non-title.

ROH: show confirmed, advance card unavailable

ROH on HonorClub is scheduled for 8 p.m. Thursday. The official ROH site was promoting Episode 189 on demand and did not provide an accessible advance card for the new episode during this check. This edition will not fill that gap with taping spoilers or guesses.

That distinction matters: the weekly stream is confirmed, but individual matches are not confirmed here. Fans should check ROH’s official channels close to bell time for a late lineup.

CMLL brings Día de Muertos to Arena México

CMLL’s official card lists a sold-out Día de Muertos edition of Viernes Espectacular for Friday at 8:30 p.m. in Mexico City, which is 10:30 p.m. Eastern. The stream link points to CMLL’s YouTube service, where membership access may apply.

The Rey del Inframundo four-way has champion Guerrero Maya Jr. facing Calavera Jr. I, Xelhua and Ráfaga Jr. The card also includes Darby Allin vs. Hechicero, India Sioux vs. Mina Shirakawa, and a three-way match involving Olympia, Persephone and Lluvia. CMLL notes that the lineup may change.

AAA keeps Rey Fenix’s opponent a mystery

AAA Héroes Inmortales Week 2 is advertised for Saturday at 10 p.m. Eastern. WWE’s AAA page lists Fox for Latin America and YouTube and Facebook for viewers elsewhere. Rey Fenix has announced an open challenge for the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship after Mini Vikingo’s injury removed him from the planned match.

Fightful’s report says the challenger remained unannounced. Naming a possible opponent before AAA reveals one would be rumor, so this edition leaves the spot open.

Raw starts early Monday with Cena and Reigns

Monday’s Raw has a special 6 p.m. Eastern start on Netflix from Brooklyn. Netflix’s official preview confirms appearances by John Cena and Roman Reigns, plus Royce Keys vs. Solo Sikoa.

The early start is the most practical schedule change for viewers to remember. Other wrestlers are advertised for the event, but appearing on a venue poster does not confirm that each person will wrestle on the televised card.

Confirmed, reported and rumor check

• Confirmed: TNA’s five-match card, WWE’s current SmackDown and Halloween Havoc lineups, Collision’s four advertised matches, CMLL’s Friday card, AAA’s open challenge and Raw’s 6 p.m. start.
• Reported, not officially confirmed: Kingdom Arena as the new Crown Jewel venue.
• Not used as news: Collision taping spoilers, guesses about the open-challenge opponent and theories about why Crown Jewel changed buildings.
