    Imo, the simulcast is the biggest win in this. I know Max is no Netflix but presence on a streamer is a big f'n deal.

    I've made that argument about WWE's popularity about the ease of access to the PLE's for a couple of years. Those PPVs better be very discounted.

    • @ravenl0rd1
      @ravenl0rd1 2 дні тому

      That's not the point. Far more people watch the PLEs now that they are included. They would lose at minimum half the watching audience if there was even a $5 charge per event. People who don't watch the events lose interest. They, in turn, don't watch the weekly shows because they are not getting the payoffs. ​@Nick-7

    Congratulations to Tony & Shahid Khan on their reported new deal with Warner Brothers Discovery (WBD)! All Elite Wrestling (AEW) receiving a new 3 year guaranteed deal, with a 1 year option, at an estimated $170 million dollars, per year.
    Reportedly, with this new deal, twice a week, AEW will air on WBD networks TBS TNT, and TruTV. With TruTV, the network's goal is to make it more sport orientated. Tony Khan pitched addtional packages to other broadcast networks, such as Fox to have AEW and Ring of Honor (ROH) possibly on FS1 and/or the Tubi streaming platform. This new deal with WBD is outside of Tony Khan's new MAX streaming deal to have the AEW and ROH taped library on MAX, as well as live AEW and ROH PPV events.
    Tony and Shahid Khan's AEW, along with Tony Khan's ROH (under the AEW umbrella) has cemented their Pro Wrestling promotion as the #2 promotion, and without question surpassed Anthem Sports and Entertainment's *Total Nonstop Action [TNA] Wrestling* , who is now light-years behind AEW as the #3 Pro Wrestling promotion. Billy Corgan's *National Wrestling Alliance (NWA)* is at a close #4, while Court Bauer's *Major League Wrestling (MLW)* and the recently merged promotions *Progress Wrestling and DEFY Wrestling* are both tied at #5, not that far away from the NWA.
    Outside the WWE+AEW(including ROH) bubble, a partnership between [1] National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) owner *Billy Corgan* , [2] Major League Wrestling (MLW) owner *Court Bauer* , [3] Maple Leaf 🍁 Pro (MLP)Wrestling owner, promoter under the Pro Wrestling Alliance and former TNA Wrestling President *Scott D'Amore* , [4] United Wrestling Network (UWN) Professional Wrestling Governing Authority and MLW Head of Production *Dave Marquez* and [5] Progress Wrestling+DEFY Wrestling owners *Lee McAteer, Martyn Best, Matt Farmer and Jim Perry* should be done to create a 24/7 Pro Wrestling streaming platform.
    This 24/7 Pro Wrestling streaming platform would showcase live events, PPV events and archived episodes of the *National Wrestling Alliance* (NWA Powerrr, NWA Exodus Pro MidWest, NWA JCP Southeast, NWA Chicago & NWA Kross Fire),
    *Major League Wrestling* , *Pro Wrestling Alliance* (MLP Wrestling, Oceania Pro Wrestling & Qatar Pro Wrestling), the *United Wrestling Network* (Championship Wrestling, Memphis Wrestling & Derby City Wrestling), and *Progress Wrestling+DEFY Wrestling* .

      ngl, I'd put MLW above the NWA currently. The NWA lost their CW deal and are currently putting their weekly show on Twitter. I'd also put Deadlock Pro (DPW) above both as number 4 if I'm honest as well.
      Western Pro Wrestling promotions rankings:
      1) WWE
      2) AEW
      3) TNA

    AEW is finally profitable? Even after the hundreds of millions lost over the years?

    • @D2Kprime
      @D2Kprime 3 дні тому

      They are not profitable because they don't _generate_ profit, nor is it the purpose. If you have billions of dollars at your disposal it doesn't have to be profitable. WCW had never turned a profit the entire time Ted Turner owned it until the mid 1990s.
      WBD lost the NBA after this season, so they needed something to fill that void. Pro wrestling is a thing and there really was no other alternative but to resign with AEW. The company itself may not be profitable, but it is still a product WBD can use to market it's own brand.

      This is such a bad faith lie. Yeah some company that has all that information already including views after 3 days, 5 days and 7 days doesn't know that already when they make a deal like this. They don't report that number, and AEW is a private company but they know what it is. They offered that deal based on that fact.

  • @zaneplatt3533
    @zaneplatt3533 3 дні тому +1

    Whether the deal is 'good' or 'great' depends entirely on perspective. If you look at it in a vacuum, it is a solid deal. They are getting an increase and should get more eyes on their product. Sapp's comment that they are going to be wildly profitable is very unlikely considering their noted expenditure currently, though. Their current deal only just makes them profitable on paper. If you look at it in comparison to the WWE, they are obviously and understandly miles below. The smackdown deal is worth 1.4 billion, and the Raw Deal is worth 5 billion over 10 (NXT is at 125 million over 5). So... in total, WWE's deals dwarf what AEW is getting. So it depends on how people view AEW and how AEW view themselves.

      I don't even understand the purpose of your point. If someone makes 5 dollars and someone else makes 5000 dollars, who cares if someone else made 5000 dollars they still made money. A new company that makes profit has value. That is rare and with a predatory company like WWE using both under and overhanded tactics it isn't that easy to do and without Tony's deep pockets maybe there was no way any other type of new company would have ever had the chance.
