Report: MLW Executives Were At CBS/Viacom For Meetings On Potential TV/Streaming Deal
MLW executives were spotted at CBS/Viacom HQ in New York City on Tuesday.
Mike Johnson at PWInsider reports that MLW and CBS/Viacom met on a potential TV/streaming deal. No further details were given.
PWInsider previously reported that MLW met with Amazon in late January-early February concerning a potential TV/streaming deal.
MLW signed with ICM Partners on Jan. 14 with an eye on a new tv/streaming deal. MLW Fusion currently airs Saturdays on beIN SPORTS and is available anytime on YouTube. The promotion has done live specials on beIN and held its first pay-per-view in November.
MLW CEO Court Bauer said of the partnership, “As the only free agent in the wrestling space in 2020, MLW is in a unique position in the television landscape. MLW provides an extraordinary entertainment experience, showcasing some of the sport’s most storied and iconic families, embracing the Mexican lucha libre culture and presenting original content in a 360 manner.”
Fightful will continue to keep fans updated on the situation as more information is known.
