Live Sports on Max Announced by Warner Bros. Discovery, AEW Not in Initial Lineup

Warner Bros. Discovery has exciting news for sports fans as it announces the launch of a new live sports option for its MAX streaming platform.

This new offering, known as the Bleacher Report Sports Add-On, is set to kick off on October 5th, just in time for the MLB playoffs. Subscribers will have the opportunity to access a variety of sports content from leagues like the NHL, NBA, NCAA, and MLB. To enjoy this sports-packed experience, customers will need to pay an additional $10 per month on top of their regular MAX subscription fee.

While this sports add-on includes content from several major leagues, it’s worth noting that it does not currently include AEW.

AEW is currently in discussions with Warner Bros. Discovery regarding TV rights, and AEW President Tony Khan has expressed his desire to bring AEW programming and its library to the MAX platform in the future. However, as of now, that integration has not yet taken place.

For more detailed information about what the Bleacher Report Sports Add-On entails, you can refer to the full release provided in the Hollywood Reporter. This new offering promises to enhance the streaming experience for sports enthusiasts, offering a wider range of live sports content.
