Its wednesday you know what that means

For a long time, All Elite Wrestling and The Dark Order had been teasing the arrival of The Exalted One. There was a string of names that fans speculated as being The Exalted One, with the likes of Matt Hardy and Luke Harper topping the list.

On tonight's edition of AEW Dynamite, The Exalted One was finally revealed as Brodie Lee, aka Luke Harper. The former WWE Superstar ended up taking a shot at WWE Chairman Vince McMahon by addressing Christopher Daniels and stating that he isn't the first "out of touch old man" who didn't believe in Lee.

You are not the first, out of touch old man who didn't believe in me, but I'll make d**n sure you are the last.

Immediately after, WWE Superstar Xavier Woods took to Twitter and posted a reaction to Lee's AEW debut. Woods stated that he finally knows what 'that' means. Check out the tweet below:

Lee had done nothing of worth during the last few months of his WWE stint. With him now being given a prominent role in AEW immediately upon his debut in the promotion, it would be nothing short of intriguing to find out what he manages to do as we move forward.

Every episode of AEW Dynamite starts the same way. The AEW Dynamite them song plays with a montage of all the top wrestlers. Then, they cut to the crowd chanting for “AE-DUB” as fireworks go off inside the arena.

Then, the familiar voices of the WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross, WCW legend Tony Schiavone and Excalibur jump into action. Good Ol’ JR opens the show with the famous catchphrase “It’s Wednesday night, you know what that means”.

But why does Jim Ross It’s Wednesday night, you know what that means to start every episode of AEW Dynamite?

It’s Wednesday night, you know what that means

Jim Ross says “It’s Wednesday night, you know what that means” to start every episode of AEW Dynamite as a tribute to the late AEW wrestler Brodie Lee. The former Luke Harper in WWE tweeted “It’s (Day), you know what that means” every day for years, after WWE forced the talent to have a twitter account during his time with the company.

It became a catchphrase of Brodie Lee, which fans recognised as a quirk of the former TNT Champion. Fans began to wonder what the day of week truly meant, and it remained a mystery until the day he died, on December 26 2020. Almost every day during his time in WWE and AEW, Brodie Lee would tweet that it was today, and you know what that means.

Jim Ross says it every episode in the memory of Brodie Lee. He first spoke the famous w0rds on the AEW Dynamite episode called the “Brodie Lee Celebration of Life” which aired just days after the former TNT Champion’s untimely death.

Every time Jim Ross says “It’s Wednesday night, you know what that means” it is a tribute to the legendary Brodie Lee and helps the fans remember one of the top talents AEW ever had.
