Report: AEW Considering Starting A Streaming Service, Likely Through Warner Bros Discovery
AEW is reportedly thinking about a streaming deal.
Bloomberg did an extensive feature on Tony Khan and All Elite Wresting, detailing the history of the company and the challenge AEW has presented to WWE.
In the article it is written, “In March, Khan acquired the small but respected pro wrestling company Ring of Honor from Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. for an undisclosed sum, adding a new crop of wrestlers, some intellectual property and an extensive video library. AEW is also considering starting a streaming service, likely through a deal with its broadcast partner, Warner Bros. Discovery Inc., according to a person familiar with management’s thinking, who asked not to be named. Last year, AEW broke $100 million in annual revenue for the first time, the person says.”
AEW has a television deal with Warner Bros. Discovery as AEW Dynamite airs Wednesdays on TBS and AEW Rampage airs Fridays on TNT. AEW Dark and AEW Dark: Elevation air on YouTube. Pay-per-view events air on traditional pay-per-view and B/R Live.
ROH is set to air its weekly shows on HonorClub, but a premiere date has not been announced.
Khan has said in the past that he’s talked to media companies about a potential streaming deal. You can find his comments by clicking here.
