Tony Khan Brags About ‘Securing the Bag’ After 10/5 AEW Collision Taping

All Elite Wrestling has grown tremendously in the past five years, bringing in big-name talent and enhancing its production. Many fans believed a new deal with Warner Bros. Discovery was inevitable, and now, AEW has officially announced a multi-year partnership with the media giant. In fact, Khan bragged about the same after Collision this week.

As reported earlier, AEW and Warner Bros. Discovery have solidified a new multi-year media rights agreement, extending their successful collaboration. The deal is also for three years with an option for a fourth year and valued at $185 million.

After the October 5th tapings for AEW Collision, which was taped on October 3rd at the Huntington Center in Toledo, Ohio, Tony Khan came out to address the crowd and bragged that AEW had secured the bag as they landed the new media rights deal.

It is also to be noted that in January 2025, AEW programming will also stream live on Max for U.S. subscribers, with shows available on-demand, which is a big deal.  With AEW’s massive new deal with Warner Bros. Discovery, 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year for the promotion.

Fans are excited about what this partnership could bring, whether it’s enhanced production quality or even new shows. This multi-year agreement gives AEW both financial security and the opportunity to expand its presence in the wrestling industry. It’s no wonder Tony Khan was so enthusiastic in celebrating the news, as the future looks brighter than ever for the company.
