Recently, there has been many fans speculating on social media that Warner Bros, isn’t happy with AEW. However, that couldn’t be further from the case as things are looking good for AEW. Warner Bros. Discovery is behind AEW.

During the recent MLB playoff coverage, TBS aired plenty of commercials for AEW Dynamite. Additionally, they have also been showing ads for Dynamite on the backdrop of certain MLB games. Kathleen Finch, Warner Bros. Discover US Networks Group chair and chief content officer had this to say during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter:

“We really play in the sports space. One of the things that we’re doing around sports is creating shoulder programming to hold onto those fans. AEW [All Elite Wrestling] pulls huge numbers, so we are working with the wrestling team to figure out what new kind of content can we build that’s not in a wrestling ring.”

Now, that we know that Warner Bros. Discovery is really supportive of AEW, it will be interesting to just how much fees they will be willing to pay when it’s time to renew the tv deal. Of course, ratings and viewership will be the deciding factor behind that decision.
