So why do you think the early writings like the Didache, Didascalia, and Apostolic Constitutions all make reference to the change of the fast days from the first and fifth days of the week to the fourth and sixth days? The testimonies that are preserved on this change, point to the arrest of Yeshua on the 4th day and His death on the paraskeue(6th day or Friday). There are also a few liturgical traditions that preserved the foot washing on the 3rd day of the week(Tuesday) which would have preceded the arrest on Wednesday.
I can't seem to find any of the really early testimonies pointing to a Wednesday crucifixion, they all point to Friday.
