AEW Earning Significant Weekly Revenue from Warner Bros. Discovery Deal

AEW is raking in the big bucks, and it’s all thanks to their blockbuster multi-year media rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery.

Valued at $555 million over three years, the deal translates to a cool $3.6 million per week for Tony Khan’s growing wrestling empire. This partnership not only secures AEW’s financial stability but also positions the company to level up in ways fans can’t wait to see.

Breaking down the numbers, AEW is set to earn $180 million in 2025, $185 million in 2026, and $190 million in 2027. And the best part? Warner Bros. Discovery holds an option to extend the deal into 2028 for an even higher payout. Combine this with AEW’s growing presence on the MAX streaming platform—where Dynamite now streams simultaneously with its TBS airing—and it’s clear the company is making bold moves.

Tony Khan has always been about reinvesting in the product, and with this kind of weekly cash flow, expectations are through the roof. From expanding the roster to improving production values, the opportunities are endless. Fans are already speculating how these funds will be used to elevate AEW’s presence in the wrestling world and beyond.

With 2025 off to a strong start, AEW’s deal with Warner Bros. Discovery is proving to be a pivotal step in its journey. But what do you think?
