Significance of 7/17 AEW Dynamite for Warner Bros Discovery Negotiations Revealed

AEW has experienced significant growth in various areas over the past five years, with fans well aware of Tony Khan’s penchant for booking loaded shows. He has continued this trend recently, and the importance of next week’s Dynamite has been highlighted due to its potential impact on a new media rights deal.

Under Tony Khan’s leadership, AEW has forged significant partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery and many are under the belief that AEW will be able to secure a new media rights deal with WBD soon enough.

Next week’s milestone episode of AEW Dynamite will feature MJF squaring off against Will Ospreay for the International Championship, as confirmed during the July 10 episode. This continues Tony Khan’s trend of packing Dynamite with high-profile matches and compelling storylines.

According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it was reported that AEW is loading up on television this month, with next week’s edition of Dynamite being described as “the home stretch” for their media rights deal negotiations with Warner Bros Discovery.

It remains to be seen whether Tony Khan’s efforts will ultimately pay off, but the company is clearly determined to present its best possible product.
