I am not sure if it was shown by Sling TV or not but there was a December 23rd AEW show on TNT. It included things like the in-ring return of "The Bastard" PAC and a main event of the Young Bucks defending against the Acclaim. On TNT, Dynamite on December 23rd started a little over an hour late as they had to wait for the NBA to finish, but it happened. To answer your Brodie Lee question, my guess is the show was not listed on Sling TV due to its irregular start time and nothing to do with Brodie Lee sadly passing away as shows are still televised regardless of wrestlers dying due to network commitments (plus the show was on the 23rd and Brodie Lee died on the 26th.) Well TNT is one of a few channels I even watch on my Sling, it still isn't on their past shows and normally according to other Wed. shows it gets put up on Sling the following day at 4 am. Hopefully get to see it before this next episode. I have never used Sling before, but I did see the December 23rd episode of Dynamite on my DVDR so I am surprised it was not listed for Sling too.

It's Wednesday. You know what that means.
Tonight's Dynamite was beautiful. It was simply the most compassionate, liberating tribute I could imagine. Perhaps, most importantly, it was fun. An old tent revival and exorcism rolled into one. Moxley's comments to open the show were a testament to the human that Brodie Lee was and, not only a fitting tribute to Brodie but also a kind of healing moment for this whole damn godforsaken year.
The matches were just wonderful. Sure, no 5-star masterpieces, but they were a catharsis the likes of which I rarely have, if ever, seen in professional wrestling. The Hangman, Silver, & Reynolds vs. MJF, Santana, & Ortiz match just about as perfect a match as you could imagine, and MJF's interaction with and ultimate comeuppance with -1 (Brodie Lee Jr.) was superb and sublime. The main event was wonderful, and the post-match tribute ceremony was a perfect way to cap off the evening. The tribute video which used footage and photos from every point in Brodie's career, scored by Tom Waits' 'Ol' 55" was astoundingly good and proof that there were no boundaries in company or personnel - images included WWE era pics with Big E, Cesaro, Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch, etc. And, I mean... Tom Waits.
AEW did it right. Tony Khan did it right. -1 did it right. It was a perfect commemoration. And I didn't even mention the fun commentary from Jericho, Ross, Schiavone, and Excalibur. Or Bryce Remsburg's heartfelt tribute video. Or Eddie Kingston's incredible tribute.
If you didn't have the chance to watch it, I highly recommend it.

No matter what you think of AEW, they did well last night. Also cool of Tony to buy the rights to that song for keeps to honor Brodie.

Interesting video posted on AEW twitter. Obviously this is trying to make you think Omega and the Bucks are teaming up, but with the words used it absolutely looks like its Omega and the Good Brothers instead. We'll be seeing that rumored Young Bucks vs. Good Brothers match pretty soon.
