The Scott D'Amore production will resurrect the Maple Leaf brand, which was use by the Tunney family in the territory era.    Tim Walbert, who left AEW in June 2023, was the company's head director from 2019 until his departure.  He previously directed Wrestlemania and other major WWE events during his eight year run with that promotion.  Kevin M. Sullivan, who over the course of his career headed TNA and AEW Production and spent time in the trenches for WWE as well, has been named the company's on air branding and production head.  Most surprising was the announcement that Keith Mitchell as Executive Producer.  Mitchell retired from working full-time in professional wrestling when he departed AEW in December 2021.  Over the course of his run of five decades in pro wrestling, Mitchell has been involved in helping to lead World Class Championship Wrestling, WCW and TNA from a Production end.  So, what was thought to be his retirement after five decades in pro wrestling turned out to just be a hiatus.

Sam Leterna, who recently exited TNA, will be the ring announcer.

Former WWE NXT and TNA personality McKenzie Mitchell will be the official "correspondent" for the promotion.
