Tony Khan has been fueling excitement with hints about upcoming media rights deals for AEW, and it seems that the company’s partnership with Warner Brothers Discovery is set to expand. Fans have speculated on how Max, WBD’s streaming service, could play a role in AEW’s future, especially with discussions surrounding streaming pay-per-views.
During a recent appearance on WFAN Daily, Khan addressed the possibility of AEW content appearing on Max, offering insight into the ongoing discussions with WBD.
“The plan is, I think, to do a lot of things potentially with Max. That could involve a variety of things,” Khan said. “We have the shows on TBS and TNT, that’s how they are available now. Dynamite, Collision, Rampage, pay-per-views, everything is on the table. I’m really excited to have TBS and TNT as a partner for all the great things we do.”
Khan also acknowledged AEW’s current pay-per-view setup on Bleacher Report, noting that the platform is being phased out,
“They are sunsetting Bleacher Report. We’re going to be doing our pay-per-views on other apps. You can get the pay-per-views on other places for now.”
As for future streaming possibilities with Max, Khan expressed optimism.
“We’re working on some exciting announcements about where to get those and what’s to come with Max.”
In conclusion, Khan reassured fans about AEW’s long-term presence on TBS and TNT: “I can promise you, I’m 100% confident that you’re going to have AEW on TBS and TNT for a long time to come.”
