Didn’t NXT only get 30 million?

>>15961000>>15961008AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
It's not even that. The report says>upwards ofSo it doesn't even reach 150m.
>>15961058GMSupwards of means 'more than'you should kill yourself
>>15961000>PPVs will be at a discounted price to MAX subscribersShouldn’t they be free?

>>15961029Who is first? Say it bitch. Say it.
lol you guys love jews. disgusting
>>15961000Lol talking about the school. How about Raw getting 5 billion
>This deal makes them profitable because... I JUST KNOW IT DOES OKAY???!!!!!
>>15961169Kek the school just got a number AEW hasn't seen in well over a year
>>15960949>no financial terms of the deal were disclosed >no mention of the number of years for the new deal>sources say it may be 150 per year but no one actually knows>there is no FOX deal and Tranpage got cancelled
>>15960949They insisted it would be 200 LMAO
>>15960949Didn't Magoo say they needed 170 milly to be profitable?
>>15960949Pigscord is not taking this well. They already coordinate "no billy" shitposting. Us Elitegods can only laugh.
>>15961187Do you have any information that it does make them profitable?
>More than double his last deal>Providing less content, IE, no Rampage or BotB>Dropped exclusivity so he can negotiate AEW with Fox and other networks>Also has RoH to shop around>Streaming on Max so they can start building a catalogue >PPV added to Max as a bonus purchase How is this bad lmao. Homies acting like he was given 80m
>>15961000>>PPVs will be at a discounted price to MAX subscribersSo they’ll actually be losing PPV revenue. This just keeps getting worse and worse.
unironically 150 million a year doesn't even pay for the roster's salary
>>15961303Jesus Christ, how much do you fucking faggots think he’s paying the roster? Are you fags retarded?
>>15961321Far more than he should
Tony fails again. Add it to his list for KWABOTY '24.
>>15961258'fraid so. Instead they got less money and Rampage got cancelled. Looks like BIG roster cuts incoming.
>>15960949>150 milly
>>15961321over 150 mil, retard, can you not read?
>>15961000Kek I never realized how fucking mindbroken AEWtrannies are
>>15961058I'm so tired of ESLs, bros. They're ruining this entire site.
>>15960949Year 1: $120MYear 2: $130MYear 3: $140MOption year: $210M"4 year deal, $150M/year"
>>15961321this nigga is paying horseface mone 5 million a year
>>15962700>Year 1: $120M>Year 2: $130M>Year 3: $140Mohnonononononononononono
>>15961295Not necessarily. More people might buy them now with the discounts. Considering they keep adding more PPVs it will probably even out.
>>15961058Go back to your English lessons Ranjeet.
This is genuinely sad behavior
>>15961258Meltzer said 115m but they're making 170m, not sure why drones keep posting 150
>>15962700Very grim.
>>15962768Dave said it's over 170
>dave said
Oh dear Pigtits has really lost it ITTKWAPB
>>15960949>OP is a NEETHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>Dave said
>>15961000>discounts on PPVs that no one buys anywaylol
>>15960949>No BillyTony locked for KWABOTY
>>15961321Jericho said from the jump that his AEW contract is the most lucrative of his entire life.
>>15960949KEK the cope is real im dyin
>>15961000These facts make a Piggaloos seethe. They can't understand nuances. They are all stupid and compare a 40 year old Fed to one that has been around for 5 years. Facts are, Tony won. Fraid so
When jericho, mox, sasha, edge, and probably a few others are getting 10 milly a year salary, 150 milly ain't shit. Tony probably spends 100 milly on roster salaries alones80kxg
>>15960956Anon I have no dog in this fight, as I’m not a console warrior. So I’ll answer sincerely. $150 million a year for just the TV rights would have been considerably lower than what people were speculating. And on top of that, WBD is also getting the streaming rights as well. It’s great that AEW is getting paid, and $150 mil a year is nothing to scoff at, but AEW fans have been screaming from the hilltops about the amazing deal they would be getting and this is far from living up to the hype. Even as recently as last week it was supposedly a sure thing that they would be getting $170 million for the TV PLUS additional money for streaming and PPV. Also apparently Tony had to give up some ownership shares to WBD.
>>15961000Because it’s a much shittier deal than everyone had been expecting.
>>15961008>>15961029If it’s truly such an amazing win for AEW, then why are the trannies so angry?
>>15960976
>>15960949Yeah. There's no way WBD is paying $150 million a year for this shit. There is a reason they didn't disclose the numbers.
>>15961029Turner owned wcw so they could never get a tv deal. You're stupid so I wouldn't comment about financial news.tsx4gj
>>15965620This.
>>15961000Wasn't the deal supposed to be $1bn / 5 years? Now it's $450 / 3 years + a network option. Anyway the biggest news coming out of all this is the confirmation that WBD has an equity stake in AEW. Glad we can finally put that silly debate to rest.
>>15966856Actually they were supposed to get a billy so in reality they lost more than half their value
>>15966856they are also losing a huge chunk of PPV money
>>15961081>upwards of means 'more than'
>>15966856>Anyway the biggest news coming out of all this is the confirmation that WBDCorrect. So it explains WBD's desire to continue broadcasting AEW despite the shit ratings and the inflated contract numbers.
>tfw "renewal day" was meant to be a celebration but TK got lowballed so the entire board is full of tranny copeas predicted
>>15966896No, it means the deal "could be worth" upwards of $150 million. More bs language so AEW can pretend WBD didn't just bend them over and fuck them in negotiations.
>>15961000>How is this anything besides a gigantic W for AEW & Tony Khan?Checked and it's not. It's a massive W for Tony and AEW, that's why bitchtits has been seething all last night and this morning.
*185m
>>15967862No, you're just coping and seething.
>>15961000This is a win in the sense that AEW wont be on YouTube TV. Every other aspect of this deal is a massive L. >No financial numbers disclosed.>Assuming $150 million is correct, AEW is still running at a loss.>Rampage cancelled.>Reported numbers went down from about $500 million a year, then $250 million, then $170 million, and now $150 million. And even that number is questionable.>WBD gets a cut of the PPVs>WBD owns more of the companyLet's be serious though, this is Shad Khan continuing to fund his son's toy chest. The cost of this contract for WBD is about half of what Shad is paying Trevor Lawrence. Money wasn't the problem. Having someone to broadcast Tony's retardation was. So in that sense, it's a win.
>>15967906>DONT BELIVE ACTUAL JOURNALISTS YOU MUST BELIEVE DIRT SHEET WRITERS!This is why they're called AEWtists
>>15968025The offical WBD press release didn't have numbers in it. Pretty much all the numbers flying around are sourced from the dirt sheets. Even the $150 number.
>spends a year spamming NO DEALY NO DEAL NO DEALY>when in fact yes dealysloptits in the mud lol
>>15968124It's a shit deal that covers nothing but salary.
>spends 2 years spamming YES BILLY YES BILLY YES BILLY>when in fact no billyPED0wheels in the mud lol
>>15967906$150 mil! What a great number for AEW, $185 mil is quite the success for the number two wrestling company. Why, after this $200 mil deal, AEW will have no problem creating memorable moments for years to come. Why think of it - $225 mil - and we'll see what WBD does after how well their $265 mil investment goes. Gosh, $300 mil, what a win! I literally don't believe the $350 mil figure, surely it's higher than $365 mil. The sky's the limit! $400 mil.
>>15960949I bet they're breaking even now. Between the crazy roster contracts and then the production costs, travel, etc, the majority of any revenue gets eaten by that
>>15960956>whats funny about that?Ojama, the joke's on you
>>15968413Not even salary.Tony is wasting daddy's money to save this failure. The deal is a fucking disaster
>>15968878RECORD PROFITS edroneThis line is ours now
>>15963299>tripling your income is bad, m'kayPlease stop coping
>>15968493It's doubtful. Even if you believe the $50 million a year number on the current deal, that basically covers the salary of your top ten wrestlers. Which means PPVs and gates are covering productions costs, promo materials, touring costs, the salaries of support staff and production crew and the salaries of the rest of the roster. And you know, we've seen how empty the arenas have been lately so you know gates aren't covering this. The only real question is if $150 mil would even cover breaking even. Which is also doubtful. This is Shad Khan throwing around fuck you money on his retard son's vanity project. It's not a real business.
>>15969214Cry more edrone
>>15969288Nobody is crying, Rojama. We're mocking the pittance Tony received from WBD.
>>15969299> second most profitable company in history> after only five years when it took everyone else decadesYeah you’re coping hard to spin this news
>>15969316You would actually have to generate a profit to be the 2nd most profitable company in wrestling history. Which means that AEW literally isn't even in the top 100 wrestling companies in history from a profitability standpoint. And it's unironically behind GCW, TNA, NWA, and PWG in this regard.
>>15969316>only took 5 yearsAEW is a private company. Please direct me to their quarterly earnings reports to prove any of this.
>>15969427Squeaaaaal!
>>15962950nope, still Vince and it's not even remotely close
>>15968413>>15968878neither of you retarded faggots have any idea what AEW's payroll is lime beyond internet smark speculation, so shut your mouth and know your role
>>15960976Anon I don't think that contract even covers aew expenses today, lets not even speculate on a ROI
>>15968930>>15969316>>15969525>>15969532>>15969542>rovert trying to pretend that he’s an insider againThis nigga really is brain dead from all the wrestling figs he shoves up his ass all day.
>>15968005What does WBD actually gain from owning more of the company? You just end up owning a bunch of shitty wrestlers
>>15969744Get new material fig schizo
>>15969299even /pol/ wasn't coping this pathetically after 2020, mods need to just ban these shitters
>>15969744sad but true
>>15960949>another laugh at aew threadfuck off bitchtits
>>15960949Only the dumbest pigs in the universe would make a post like this. Luckily, this board is full of posts like this due to us having the dumbest pigs in the universe.
>>15969744>bitchtits having a melty because yes dealy slopdown got cancelled lol
