RJ City discusses the return of Meal and a Match.
RJ City and Renee Paquette host Mean and a Match, but only one episode aired so far. In May, the show premiered on the TBS YouTube channel with guest Eddie Kingston. In October, AEW announced that AEW Meal and a Match will return with new episodes in the fall.
Speaking on Eyes Up Here with Francine, RJ City commented on why Meal and a Match went on a break and discussed filming more episodes.
"Renee and I had come up with the idea and pitched it for a while. It taks a while to make things happen. We did that one basically as a pilot to make a demo and to show it to people to get greenlit. We filmed all day with Eddie Kingston. We ate a bunch of food. We didn’t know what we were going to do with it. They liked it so much, they said, ‘Let’s put it out at the first episode.’ So it says, ‘New series. Episode one.’ Maybe we shouldn’t have done that until we had others in the can. It was good. They used it to get more episodes made. It took a while. Network things and whatever. We were like, ‘Maybe you shouldn’t have put it out until we had a schedule of more episodes.’ Now, we have more episodes. More than one episode. It feels nice. When they come out, I don’t know. Definitely before the end of the year. We shot them a couple weeks ago. I don’t want to get into what we ate and with who, but the next day Renee threw up three times," City said.
As of this writing, there is no specific word on when AEW Meal and a Match will return. Fightful will provide more information as it becomes available.
