THATS THE DEAL BROTHER
AEWAll Elite Wrestling (AEW) has officially signed a new multi-year multimedia rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery.Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, but according to sources, the deal is valued at upwards of $150 million per year when all elements are taken into account. Under the new deal, AEW shows “Dynamite” and “Collision” will remain on TBS and TNT respectively. But for the first time since its launch in 2019, AEW programming will stream live on Max simultaneously for U.S. subscribers and will be available to stream on-demand starting in January 2025.“We are honored to announce the extension of our incredible partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery,” said AEW CEO, GM and head of creative Tony Khan. “This extension continues the tradition of iconic wrestling events broadcast on TBS and TNT, while also establishing a new legacy for AEW through weekly live streams on Max for years to come. We thank David Zaslav, Kathleen Finch and everyone at WBD for their tireless support of All Elite Wrestling since its inception, as well as the AEW fans, talent and staff that helped make this possible.”
>>15960824I dont even know what MAX is. Is it a YouTube channel? Im being serious
>>15960824DONT YOU SWEEP IT UP BITCHTITS YOU GOT TO SWEEP IT UPI HEAR BITCHTITS CRYIN I HEAR BITCHTITS SWEEPIN
Now go fucking off yourselfs, monopoly-craving e-drones. AEW is going nowhere.
>>15960836It’s where HBO puts its cheap tv shows
>>15960832The deal also includes enhanced distribution rights across social media as well as potential new AEW programming on linear and digital platforms. Furthermore, AEW live pay-per-views will be available on Max later in 2025 at a discounted price per event, with all marketing and promotions of those events exclusively centered on Max.“Tony Khan and the entire AEW team have been incredible partners, and we are thrilled to strike this expanded agreement to deliver amazing new AEW content and stories to TNT and TBS, as well as bring the thrilling live action to Max for the first time,” said Kathleen Finch, chairman and CEO of US Networks for Warner Bros. Discovery. “We are focused on creating fresh and authentic experiences for AEW’s passionate and engaged fanbase while also introducing them to our growing lineup of high-action sports and entertainment at TNT and beyond.”AEW’s flagship show, “Dynamite,” debuted on TNT in October 2019. The show currently ranks as Wednesday’s number one cable entertainment series among adults 18-49. “Collision” is currently in the top five of in its Saturday timeslot among both adults 18-49 and men 18-49.AEW’s current roster includes champions Bryan Danielson, Mariah May, Mercedes Moné, tag team The Young Bucks, Will Ospreay, Jack Perry, Wheeler Yuta, Pac, Claudio Castagnoli, and Kazuchika Okada.

>>15960842SWEEP IT UP BITCHTITS
even more shit to torrent then ugh.... I'm already three months behind
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA AEW WON
>upwards to 150 million > no more ppv revenue
it’s officially over for slop lovers
>>15960824B-b-b-b-bitchtits. This day was never supposed to come. S-save us.
>>15960867Did you read it, ppv is on Max and Tony gets that money. You have to buy it on Max going forward
more fake numbers just like the ppv numbers
>>15960832>$150 million per year when all elements are taken into accountKWAB
>>15960855>weren’t disclosedLmao
>>15960824>$20 million a year less than what was reportedKEK! Tony pretty much settled for the lowest he was going to get
Good for AEW and wrestling as a whole
>150 Milly plus >For 4 hours weekly>Doesn't even include BotB or RampageUnironically a good win for Tone. If he also gets an hour in Fox he could be making 170m a year
>>15960884150 X 5 is 750m. Plus Tony keeps ppv money and merch and live gates and sells a show to fox
3x increase on the last deal plus a new FOX show worth $25m to $35m coming.What a success story. Let's enjoy ALL ELITE WRESTLING together!
>upwards of 150So it could be 20 million it could be 80 million it could be 150 million
No RampageStill selling PPVs one at a time w "max discount"No billyNo disclosure of length of deal
>>15960896The reported number includes Rampage, they're shopping Shockwave with Fox anon
>>15960902so not a billy
>>15960884At least 150 and that's just for Dynamite and Collision
>>15960824>Won't get renewedGot renewed>Won't get on MaxGets on Max>Won't get paidGets fucking paid>Yeah but PPVsAlso streaming on MaxSUCK IT PIGGIES. I love laughing at WWE!
>>15960851still got the fox deal to come, easily over 50mil a year
if thats the deal what took so long to announce it?
piggies are coping hard kek ya love to see it
>no mentions of Rampage
>>15960824I guess they signed for 3 with an option of another year which would be around 700 milly in the bank for Big Tone
Only $150 million for PPVs and TV. PED0wheels SAVE MEEEEE LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
>>15960907Here comes the COPE
>>15960907You're sweating
Where’s the press release?
> financial is not disclosed could be close to 150m a year> rampage is gone > 2025 the simulcast starts for both shows on max This is bizarre. No mention of the ppvs on the platform .2 shows for $150mil is about 75 million each. For 3 years at $450 million. I think that’s less than what dynamite was getting for one show a year .
>>15960925Tony keeps ppv revenue
>>15960920tony was desperately trying to get more
>>15960824WE WON!WE FUCKING WON!WE GOT WBD, A MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY ON OUR SIDE!Seethe E-Drones, because this time next year WWE will be out of business
>>15960824>no billy>deal so bad they're avoiding revealing the actual number>Megamind will keep going over>get to keep laughing at AEW>get to laugh at WBD for renewing a dead company BITCHTITS WON
>>15960939Show me where it says that. Tony Kwab got FLEECED LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
>>15960923AEW is ending Rampage to start up Shockwave. They're not going to be running four different shows. It's not a part of this deal with WBD because it's going to Fox. Less oinkin and more keeping up, piggie.
>>15960936Are you retarded?
>>15960936did you read the article? they literally say ppvs will be on max in 2025
>>15960948It's literally in the short article that takes 2 minutes to read
>>15960936Dynamite was getting $45m per year, slightly inflated this year due to it being an option year.
>>15960941not included in this announcement is that not only WBD is on your side, they actually hold even more stake in AEW than before (since that's the only way they'd give the deal)
Why would they not release a concrete number? >up to $150 million a yearOkay, so that could be less than $150 million a year. Also how many years is it? Surely they can't get away with not releasing the concrete figures.
>>15960961Upwards of, not up to.
Today officially begins the end of WWENow all we need is a federal activist judge with a grudge against McMahon
>>15960957Nope, it just says people still have to pay for PPV. Meaning WBD gets the revenue. LOLOLOLOLOLOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLl TONY KWAB WINS AGAIN!
>>15960836It's WBD's streaming service, along the lines of NBC's Peacock.
>>15960959But they still can't tell Tony what to do, or how to bookSo AEW wins, regardless, hold on PiggiE because WWE is finished
>>15960961>Why would they not release a concrete number?Because it's a bad number. >Also how many years is it?Because it, too, is a bad number.
>>159608843/4 of the way there isn't that far off.
>>15960958Hahahahahahhaha! The leaker was right
>>15960961They can’t , they have to disclosure to the investors. Why it’s being hush hush is probably a David decision.
>$150 million per yearHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>15960824Wow so Punk actually won in the end
>>15960981They sell the PPVs on youtube, too, does that mean youtube gets the revenue from those?
>>15960971>Today officially begins the end of WWEDidn't NXT just completely devastate Dynamite?
>>15960991What the fuck does that mean? Did Tony sell the company off or what?
>>15960991based SRS running damage controlhope Tony pays him well
>>15961018We're hitting a fuckin million tonight
>>15961018Pilot on OTA. Give it a few weeks.
>>15961015uh yeah sure he did
>>15961009>they have to disclosure to the investors.If that were true, why haven't we seen disclosures of any AEW deals in the five years they've been on Warner Bros networks to this point?
>>15961016No, because no one buys them on YouTube LOLOLOLOLOL
NOOOOOOOOOOOOSAVE ME PAPA HSAVE ME JIM CORNETTESAVE ME ERIC BISCHOFFSAVE MEEEEEEEEEEE
>>15961030>We're hitting a fuckin million tonightActually you'd be lucky to crack 750k kek
LET'S FUCKING GOOOO! AEW! AEW! AEW!
>no concrete figure>no mention of how many yearsWhat's the point?
>>15961036You know, that’s a good point. I don’t think we ever got the collision number when collision started.
this wasn't supposed to happen E-bros
>upward to 150mwhy not just tell us the actual number? upwards to could bean 5 bucks, for all anyone knows
This guy has been calling it for like 2 1/2 years though, it’s impressive for AEW, but not really for his reporting. When you claim it’s coming every week for 2 1/2 years and you’re finally correct sorry that doesn’t count for much.
>>15961055>What's the point?Tony's trying to hide how disappointing it is.
>>15961061We dunno the Collision number, we dunno any of the escalators, we dunno what the option for 2024 was worth, AEW's TV money has been a black box with nothing but a generally agreed upon speculation for like a year and a half now.
>>15960832>$150 million per yearI THOUGHT IT WAS 1 BILLY???I THOUGHT IT WAS 200 MILLY??????
>>15961055>why didn't they specifically cater the announcement to my needs for posting on a pro wrestling forum with a bunch of other retardshuh wat u mean?
>>15960970Kek you expect an edrone to be literate no less so financially literate?
>>15960824Now that the dust has settled, how did all the wrestling journalists imaginable know so much about this deal for months while none of them knew about any of WWEs previous TV deals like the FOX, Netflix, CW, etc ones
>>15961068Maybe they always knew the basic idea of what they wanted to do, but it took 2 1/2 years to figure out the details.
>>15960832>$150 million per year when all elements are taken into accountSo still loss making then? As expected - pissant numbers for a pissant company.
>AEW shows “Dynamite” and “Collision” HAMPAGE WAS ACTUALLY CANCELLED LMFAO
>>15960903yayyy
>>15960836It was HBOGo but they changed the name. It’s HBO/Warner Bros shit mostly. All the DC stuff and whatnot too
>>15960842Piggie bros, what happened to Transpage?
>>15960961For health and safety reasons zaslav decided to withhold the money amount because there would be mass edrone suicides and heart attacks. TNT must think of the risi
>>15961090WWE were very upfront about it specifically being 500 million for 5 years for RAW.
I know I like to make fun of PED0wheels but there is no other way to spin this. What a terrible deal for Tony Kwab. NXT is making $40 million for 2 hours filmed inside of a gym.
>>15961108>So still loss making then?How much do you think it takes run a wrestling company?
>>15961130Rampage was cancelled I'm afraid.
>>15961075The show with Bryan and Dave should be hilarious tonight because Dave will be happy meanwhile Bryan is going to prod him about a figure . Dave will go gigs autistic on Bryan over the number and how it doesn’t matter .
>>15961141150m dynamite vs 25m NXT Get a grip
>>15961150>fantasy booking your friend simulatorthis is cringe I wasn't prepared for
>This deal makes them profitable because... I JUST KNOW IT DOES OKAY???!!!!
>>15961134No they didn't, they pushed it as a 10 year 5 billion dollar deal.
>>15961032>room full of fake jabronis
>>15961145Have you seen the size of AEWs roster?
>>15961149GRIM
>>15961158Dynamite + Collision + PPVS on Max + VOD on Max
>>15961164No, there was clarification of 10 years with Netflix being able to opt out after 5. And if you can do simple math, you could very easily deduce that it was 500 million from 5 billion / 10.
>Rampage legitimately got cancelledAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YESSSSSSS! WHAT A FUCKING PISSANT COMPANY!
>>15960832>upwards of $150 million per year>upwards ofTHAT MEANS IT'S GONNA BE EVEN LESS AS THAT IS NOT A GUARANTEED NUMBER, ONLY AN ESTIMATEIN OTHER WORDS: IT'S GONNA KEEP LOSING MONEY AND GET THE WHOLE THING CANCELED INSTEAD OF JUST HAMPAGE>swineamite still hasn't been renewed>hampage has been confirmed for cancellation >porklision hasn't been renewed either and the only ratings tanking faster than its own are swineamite'sLOL
>>15961172Yes. It's not more than 150 million.
Some of you are really retarded.
>>15961231I can inspect element too.
>>15960836Holy shit, I fucking called it. Tony is finally making a good business decision for once. It's not as notable as Prime or Hulu, but it's a step in the right direction.
>>15960824kek so no Fox and no billy? AEWtists are such lying retards
>>15961231They didnt finish high school
So you have to subscribe to max to buy the ppvs? You could run a profitable wrestling company for 150 million with ticket sales and ppvs just being the icing on the cake. Tony Khan on the other hand wants to license music that he heard on an roh dvd, pay guys to stay home and give multimillion dollar deals to shitters, and rent out arenas he can’t fill.
>>15961231They're having a bad day, let them have something to hold onto.
Pork chops are back on the menu
>150mDoes this even cover half of his talent payroll?
>>15960824115m per year would make them profitablethis takes into account show costs, talent, production and everything. So Tony has made profits. Add in Shockwave and you have a healthy company right there. The blackpiller and bad faith faggots on here can irony post and laugh through the tears all they want the truth is the truth. Tony won.
>>15961231>Financial terms of the deal were not disclosedthe number is so low that Toneh asked WB to not disclose the number to avoid getting humiliated on twatter
I do think WBD overpaid for this. NXT gets within 100k viewers of them, has beaten them some weeks and is getting around $25 million. Sure, there's two shows here which means AEW should get more but Collision gets a lot less viewers and is clearly not a priority for anyone. Every wrestling promotion is worthless in 2024 without TV and AEW didn't have a lot of other channels to turn to, so WBD had a lot of control here.I'm curious as to how many years this is for. It wasn't mentioned and it's rather important. I'd assume this is for atleast 3 years but if this was a 10 year deal like WWE got, they'd make a lot more.Having Max should add some viewers weekly, though we will never know since it's Max and not TV. I'm curious as to what the VOD situation will be. I assume there will be a delay before footage gets up to deter people from not watching live.Max could be deterrent when it comes to PPV's. If you want to see the show, you will probably have to sub to Max in some fashion, though it's possible you can opt not to sub and pay more. Some people will never subscribe to Max.Rampage, Ring of Honor and Battle of the Belts were not mentioned. One can assume Rampage is probably gone as those were the rumors anyway. BOTB is such a small and sporadic thing that it may have just not been mentioned. ROH is on Honor Club, but one would also assume it would have been mentioned if it were here.I'm curious as to what happens to the old episodes of Dark and Elevation. Will they move over to Max or stay on Youtube?
>>15961271I believe talent was at 200m a year before swerve got his new contract.
>>15961275Post the books
It's time now for Kirby to go on a firing spree. They've locked in their tv, free up some cash flow immediately and fire the shitters
>>15961269where's Rampage?
>>15961275>>15961163
>>15961231Drone faggots are so fucking cringe
>>15961219The roster is extremely bloated and everyone is overpaidNot to mention the fact that tickets are dirt cheap, they have no merch and also have to pay for every single large arena they run 10% capacity inYou’re delusional if you think this will turn a profit for them
>>15960824No fox?
>>15961315you lost, touch grass
>>15961315You must be really poor if you have this little understanding of how much money that is
>>15961325We’re having an actual discussion hereGo play in traffic instead of posting drive by shitposts
>>15961280NXT will be happy to scratch 400k in a few weeks
>>15961325>no billy>Rampage canceled>Dynamite obliterated by NXTDidn't you just lose?
>>15961275>NOOOOO TONY IS ONLY GOING TO MAKE 50 MILL A YEAR IN PROFITS IM GOING INSANE
>tony turns down offer from CW for ROH because he wanted to package it in the renewal>ROH not included in the renewalthis just keeps getting kwabbier and kwabbier
>>15961347nope, touch grass.
>>15961178Exactly, all these for just that number?GrimTony is WBD's bitch, I can only wonder what other conditions they set for him
>>15961032And then he went on to fuck the entire nxt womens locker room.
>>15961325I actually have a 3 bedroom house, 2 bath, with grass. You live at home with your mother who is single and 45 looking for melanin men on tinder. You have lost in life.
>>15961339Ah yes, just like you were insisting Smackdown would never do a milly on the USA Network, then insisting they'd never do a milly again, then insisting there was no way they'd do a milly 3 times in a row, then insisting they'd definitely plummet but then actually skyrocketed KEK. NXT is going to beat the shit out of Dynamite pretty much every week from now on I'm afraid.
>>15961280>Every wrestling promotion is worthless in 2024 without TVHow, if cable TV is getting phased out each year? >Having Max should add some viewers weekly, though we will never know since it's Max and not TVThey can very easily report the viewer count for streaming services... this isn't hyper advanced technology. >Max could be deterrent when it comes to PPV'sWWE does PPVs on streaming. They're fine. They get massive views still. The affordability pays for itself. Are you sure you know what you're talking about?
>>15961315Well said
>>15961378SmackSow is steadily plummetting sadly
>>15961275https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/2024/10/02/aew-warner-bros-discovery?publicationSource=sbd&issue=e9fd32f620074ce797d93b2a3df361aeLooks like the number is actually 170 million. How much profit is enough profit for bad faith obese squealing e-drones? Tony could've got 250milly and they would still act like it was a bad deal.
Product still sucks regardless
>>159612753.5x increase from the previous deal.
>>15961410Now type that without oinking
>>15961404Did you read the part where it mentions that TNT own equity in the company
>>15961404You are the ones who said the 5 billion dollar deal RAW got was bad, now you are pretending like this 150 million dollar deal for 2 years is good. Are you having memory loss
>>15961417That’s not true , collision was never apart of the original AEW deal. It got added on but that was much later in the deal and we were never told how much more was given .
>>15961377You do not have any of those things,but AEW has a profitable tv deal. Time to touch grass. Really
>200+ million a year for five years>ROH TV deal>Shockwave on FOXTalk about moving the goal post.
>>15961269>T-TRUST THE PLAN!No wonder the coping has started already. This is a VERY underwhelming deal.
>>15961315Yeah, but you don't actually know how much anybody is paid.
>>15961404>The deal is estimated to be valued at $170M>tranny pretending "estimated" means "confirmed">doesn't even question who's doing the estimatingKek why am I not surprised>WBD also keeps its equity stake in AEWHmm? I thought WBD having an equity stake in AEW was just a rumor?
>>15961454>AEW has a profitable tv dealReally? How much profit is AEW going to make with this new TV deal?
>>15961393>How, if cable TV is getting phased out each year?The assumption you're making is that AEW is a brand on par or level with WWE, or even within striking range of it. It's not. It's not even in striking range of NXT which is literally a wrestling school that gets any and all attention it has because of the WWE branding. Wrestling as a whole is not a major hobby in and of itself. This isn't a company seeing Marvel making movies and going "Oh let's get some comic book IP". To the vast majority of the mainstream "wrestling" is synonymous with WWE and nothing else. AEW is not going to grow as a brand from being on a major network or brand, because it's been on one for 5 years and has done the opposite. The idea that its talent can draw viewers, new or old, has been proven untrue. >They can very easily report the viewer count for streaming servicesThey can do alot of things easily, but networks are loathe to give peeks behind the curtain at viewership because they gain nothing from it. Fans will want their show on no matter the viewer count number. Theyre fans. And networks would rather not share viewership numbers when they use them for ad sales. Look at Netflix and how closely they guard their shit. Or Disney and how they manipulate theirs to for spin. >WWE does PPVs on streaming. They're fine. Once again conflating WWE with AEW. This has been AEW's issue for its entire existence. This want and need to be validated by comparing itself to something it is not even close to replicating.
>>15961393>How, if cable TV is getting phased out each year? It's getting phased out, but it's not gone yet. A lot of people still have cable and if you have cable, you can flip over to see AEW if you want. But when it comes to VOD services, you have to have the specific VOD service to see the show. And if you don't you can't see it.>They can very easily report the viewer count for streaming services... this isn't hyper advanced technology. They probably won't. I'd expect the Max number to be a lot lower than the TV number.>WWE does PPVs on streaming. They're fine. They get massive views still. The affordability pays for itself. WWE does not charge currently for PPV's except for the Peacock sub. They said AEW PPV's will be offered at a discount here and not the price of a Max sub. I'm thinking you have to have Max + pay for the PPV. And I'm thinking the discount is whatever one month of Max costs.
>>15961475enough to make you squeal until your first and hopefully fatal heart attack
>>15960824Is it just the shows or are they doing ppv's too?
>>15961489So you don't actually know that AEW is going to turn a profit with this new deal?
>>15961269these people who act like a rich kid getting more richer is somehow christmas eve are so weird. deal seems good assuming they still have tv, which id guess he does? still not gonna watch it but i hope it goes well
>>15961454I do, not everyone is a fat faggot who lives with their whore mother like you. So while I sit on my beautiful grass, you can sit in your shit section 8 housing and use a third of your SSI check to watch AEW on Max. Turn up the volume on your tv to drown out your mothers squeals
>>15961493The PPV's will air on Max at a discount. My assumption is that the discount is whatever it costs to sub to Max that month. We will see though.
>>15961462>pretending that aews talent contracts haven't been thoroughly discussed for years
Can you e drones shut up now?
>>15961528Rampage was cancelled, I'm afraid
>>15961513not beating the coping loser allegations with these cringe fantasies, I'm afraid
>>15961072>Tony's trying to hide how disappointing it is.lol this
>>15961556Your mom getting pounded by crack dealers isn’t a fantasy I’m afraid, but I’m sure if you tune into dynamite tonight all your personal problems will go away
>they want people to pay for PPVs on top of paying for MAXWill AEWtists actually pay?
>>15961504Can you read the OP? That's how I know. Time to start living, anon.
>>15961574just post through it, son
>>15961464>Hmm? I thought WBD having an equity stake in AEW was just a rumor?/pw/ was right again
>>15961578AEW's PPV numbers were always self-reported and wrong
>>15961589>/pw/ was right againBrandon Thurston you mean
>>15961517Damn. I was hoping they'd be streamed at no extra cost like how Peacock does it.
>>15961280>Having Max should add some viewers weekly, though we will never know since it's Max and not TV. I'm curious as to what the VOD situation will be. I assume there will be a delay before footage gets up to deter people from not watching live.It says "streaming simultaneously." Delaying the VOD would be counterproductive. People watching on cable have DVRs and don't have to watch live; treating streaming viewers differently would only reduce the incentive for people to sub to Max.>>Max could be deterrent when it comes to PPV's. If you want to see the show, you will probably have to sub to Max in some fashion, though it's possible you can opt not to sub and pay more. Some people will never subscribe to Max.>The way I read it, PPVs will still be available through cable providers, but will be discounted for Max subscribers. "Exclusively centered on Max," isn't the same as "exclusively available on Max." We already knew Bleacher Report was getting cut out, and this probably means the same for Thriller (formerly Fite). Traditional pay-per-view, though, I would expect to stay, since even WWE does that, despite the Peacock deal and the change in terminology from PPV to PLE.
Hennimore won.
>>15960848>enhanced distribution rights across social mediaWhat does this mean? Does WBD now own AEW's youtube channel?
>>15961803Very Trumpy. Very true. Vote your conscience.
>>15961643Comcast gave WWE a sweetheart deal because fucking nobody was subbing to Peacock back then and it was a laughingstock. They were desperate for subscribers.Max is already in a much, much better position in terms of subscriber base than Peacock was.
>>15960920He probably wanted exclusivity to end so he can shop RoH and the Fox show.
>>15960936>think that’s less than what dynamite was getting for one show a year .Dynamite was like 50m a year
>150mminus 120m in yearly salariesminus renting venuesminus all the lighting, gear, filming, transportminus tonys crack fundgrim
>>15961812Yes, that’s the little tidbit no one knows yet. WBD had majority stake in AEW now…leaker anon was right
>>15960824>I get HBO max for free with my cable subscriptionTime to never give AEW a +1 in the Neilson ratings and key demo.
CANCELLED
>>15962054Yeah that'll show em, ya numb cunt.
>>15961975and flights/hotels/carsand losing money on video gamesand losing money on ROH
and AEWtists expect everyone to believe this company is worth $2 billion
I wonder how much equity Tony coughed up to make up for "his" disastrous prior negotiations.
>>15961231this deal has really exposed just how many indians post here kek

>>15960824>be wrestling journalist>have no concrete facts and everything ia just heresay from the grapevine>spend weeks and months predicting something that may or may not happen based on said heresay rumors and edge their fanbase on like someone that cries about stock market crashes >when something actually happens its not even their own report they will juat link to a tweet from an actual media publication and take credit as if they broke the story
>>15963016keep posting through it lil sister
>>15961975>three years of collective AEW programming gets $450m>one year of Raw gets $500mhmm
>>15963093Retard doesn't know that includes all of WWE deals internationally
>>15962949the person you responded to has the same IP as you
>>15963099Ok, and what are those
>>15961445Literally no one said this.
>>15960843Youre right its going nowhere but nowhere has multiple meanings and uses.For example AEW like your life is going nowhere
>>15961541We all know your afraid piggy. Fox doesn't like your company anymore cause your all poor
What you retarded AEWtists don't understand is that no one actually wants this dog wanking fed to go away. This deal gives us three more guaranteed years of Tina lolcow antics. I'm happy about this news.
>>15960884Looks like he was almost correct except the dealy is for 3 years and instead of 200 milly per year, AEW managed to get 170 milly per year. No wonder /pw/ is going insane. 5 years of shitposting and praying for AEW's death and you faggots have nothing to show for it.
>>15963197>lolcowdronies really ARE demented gay boomers
>>15961231>Some of youUmmm...all dronie piggiEs are retarded
>>15961280David Zaslav is CLOSE FRIENDS with TonyHe is going to stand with THE GOOD GUYSWBD overpaid? Nah, bitchThis is a WAR!Sacrifices have to be made in a WARWE are going to DESTROY WWE!
>>15963295We don't sign our posts here
Based
>>15960832>Financial terms of the deal were not disclosedKek. Tony took $20 million per year.
>>15960842SWEEP THIS SHIT UP PIGTITS
>>15963093>three years of collective AEW programming gets $450m>one year of Raw gets $500mAnd this is assuming the numbers announced are even remotely in the ballpark. Tony has been known to fake his PPV numbers and it's not like Meltzer and SRS have called him on it.
>>15960907Sweep it up bitchtits
>>15961975Lossbros, we eatin' good
>>15960832In reality, this tells us nothing due to the wording but I'm sure you obsessive unemployed retards will debate it endlessly
>>15966046All it really says is that WBD will continue to air Dynamite and Collision. Rampage was cancelled. The official press release from WBD had nothing about numbers or total value of the deal. So the $150-170 million numbers seems to be completely made up. And I doubt none of this is guaranteed. It's probably based on Tony's inflated PPV numbers, but at least we have this lolcow around for three more years.
It's very frustrating that there's nowhere to talk about things like this now. SC and Twitter is full of smarks with no rationality. FAN is a cheerleader. WON forums are cheerleading smarks with no rationality who all pretend to be insiders. This place was always full of shitposts but you'd find intelligent conversation here in big moments. Now it's console warring and the sane shit memes about rovert or ojama or some other phantom. You people have destroyed this place
>>15966200>Got desu'edNewfags need to die
>>15966102Doubt is an intransitive verb so this sentence isn't a double negative you absolute faggot. Fuck off grammar schizo.
>>15966175>This place was always full of shitposts but you'd find intelligent conversation here in big moments.Yeah ... the schizos that are online 24/7 in literally every thread really ruin it. I think they've been banned from every other corner of the internet.
>>15966330>Yeah ... the schizos that are online 24/7 in literally every thread really ruin it. I think they've been banned from every other corner of the internet.The worst offender was famously kicked out of the F4W forums after dozens of people complained about him shitting up the forums 24/7/365, exactly as he's does here.
>>15966376He must have crazy powerful meds keeping him awake but the meds don't get rid of his headmates.
>>15966175it's not just in /pw/ i saw that schizo talking about rovert in some videogame thread (no one had a clue what he was on about)
>>15966390He watches Raw, Smackdown, NXT, Dynamite, Rampage (now cancelled) and Collision live every week, despite them being on in the middle of the night in his country. It might be meds, but I think it's more likely he's unemployed and his entire life revolves around watching/posting about pro wrestling.
>>15966400People talk about you because you are here 24/7.
