Production[]
Background[]
On December 9, 2020, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) announced that the December 23 episode of their flagship television program, Dynamite, would be a special episode titled Holiday Bash. The Christmas television special was taped on December 17 at Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. TNT aired the Boston Celtics vs. Milwaukee Bucks National Basketball Association game prior to Dynamite's normal 8pm Eastern Time (ET) slot; however, with the expectation that the game would go past 8pm, Holiday Bash was scheduled to air immediately following the game's conclusion.[1]
Storylines[]
Holiday Bash featured professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[2] Storylines were produced on AEW's weekly television program, Dynamite, the supplementary online streaming show, Dark, and The Young Bucks' YouTube series Being The Elite.
