It's just been announced, AEW Dynamite and Rampage will air on ESPN in Australia, New Zealand and throughout the Pacific Islands.
Dynamite with air Thursday and Rampage on Saturday with additional same day replays and will also be available on demand.
AEW's Big 4 PPVs will also be available on delay on ESPN.
This comes just a few months after Foxtel (subscription provider that airs ESPN) launched it's 24/7 WWE Channel offering previous 'WWE Network' content, weekly live broadcast and free access to PLE.
AEW begins airing on February 16.

Just looking at the schedule.
So it's 1:00pm (AEDT), 5:30pm (AEDT) and 10:30pm (AEDT) on ESPN2. Meanwhile it appears that Rampage will be pre-empted by the NBA and will air from 5:00pm (AEDT) with an additional replay at 10pm.
I may have to go old school next week to get the old FoxSports RAW fix for Dynamite then get the TNT Nitro or Fox8 Impact fix for Rampage. Both would be pretty fair comparisons considering Rampage is the B-show. All I need is a classic Dynamite replay after Rampage and we're set.

Big Pete airs live at 12PM AEDT according to the ESPN website My boss is going to love this, I’ve been annoying him every week to watch RAW in the sports bar (he has to change a set top box) ironically ESPN2 is the channel he has to change it from 🤣🤣🤣. EDIT: I Wonder how much the delay is by, if it’s only a day or two I’m happy to wait.

If you think I'm critical now watching semi-casually...
Actually, I love the idea of AEW being on Australian TV. I've hoped for this since day one, and it's actually a great thing for AEW in it's expansion into new territories.

Dynamite will be aired live, Rampage on a slight delay right after the NBA.

Big Pete I’m jealous you don’t have to deal with daylight savings.

I found a neat little trick with Foxtel, I don't have ESPN or the Sports package, so if I flick over the channel it says " not available " yet I can click " start over " and stream the content.
