Tony Khan addresses rumors of Warner Bros Discovery being interested in WWE television rights
During an interview with PostWrestling.com, AEW President Tony Khan addressed rumors of Warner Bros. Discovery being interested in WWE television rights…
“I don’t want to talk too much about the contract we have with Warner Brothers Discovery, but I definitely have some pretty favorable things in there, and given the commitment that Warner Brothers Discovery is making for AEW with Collision and Dynamite, I think it really shows that they’re fully committed to AEW. We just had AEW All Access also launch on Max, in addition to being on TBS every Wednesday night and on TNT every Friday and now every Saturday night, starting this week with the launch of Collision.”
“I really believe David Zaslav [WBD CEO David Zaslav] has been a very, very strong supporter of AEW. I believe when he came in and said, ‘I want two more hours of AEW on Saturday nights,’ that was one of the biggest votes of confidence that you could give us, and it was certainly very favorable for us to hear that he wanted that, and then to be able to deliver in a very quick turnaround and put together what I think is going to be a great, great show with AEW Collision every Saturday night.” (quotes courtesy of Colin Tessier)
