Report: AEW Considering Starting Their Own Streaming Service
An AEW streaming service is being considered
Feb 2, 2023
All Elite Wrestling are considering entering the streaming world.
Within a Bloomberg piece on Tony Khan, it was noted that AEW are considering starting their own streaming service, likely through a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery, the promotion's TV partner. It was also noted that AEW made over $100 million for the first time in 2022.
Bloomberg wrote the following excerpt:
"In March, Khan acquired the small but respected pro wrestling company Ring of Honor from Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. for an undisclosed sum, adding a new crop of wrestlers, some intellectual property and an extensive video library. AEW is also considering starting a streaming service, likely through a deal with its broadcast partner, Warner Bros. Discovery Inc., according to a person familiar with management's thinking, who asked not to be named. Last year, AEW broke $100 million in annual revenue for the first time, the person says."
Tony Khan already owns HonorClub, Ring of Honor's streaming service that will eventually be the home of ROH's weekly TV series.
Alongside a potential partnership over a streaming service, Warner Bros. Discovery broadcasts both AEW Dynamite and AEW Rampage. Dynamite airs every Wednesday on TBS, while Rampage airs on Fridays on TNT.
