    AEW TV rights negotiations megathread

    I agree that those would be the channels theoretically, but I would discount Fox having any interest in AEW, but you never can say never though. And yeah, exactly. They’d have to turn WBD completely down before they can even entertain another offer? And that’s a gamble I wouldn’t be willing to...

    Yep. Imagine that the same channel the fuck the ECW over by never promoting them and digging around their time slot then also gave raw a hard time. While it wasn’t a bad channel by any stretch of the imagination, it certainly didn’t have the reach of USA either. And wrestling fans were just...

I think that’s why we still haven’t heard a deal even though they’ve been trying to get max for like a year now. They don’t seem to be getting in the ballpark Tony is comfortable...

    AEW TV rights negotiations megathread

    Exactly. I honestly believe being on tnt and tbs is what propelled AEW so fast and it’s what makes them successful and honestly WBD has always promoted them well. Ads during other programming and print ads and also defending their ratings in press. That’s what I think is the most important...

    AEW TV rights negotiations megathread

    I’ve heard this deal might entirely hinge on Max rights to at least the PPV so we have to hold hope they give Tony a good offer or Tony swallows a little bit on this deal in hopes he gets a better next round. I’ve always defended AEW wanting good money for the PPV since he somehow gets a...
