Update On Financial Terms Of AEW's New TV Deal With Warner Bros. Discovery

All Elite Wrestling's new TV deal with Warner Bros. Discovery will operate on a sliding scale, with the amount of money WBD pays increasing over the deal's three-year run, according to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio.

It had already been reported that AEW's new TV deal is worth close to $185 million per year. Meltzer has since noted the deal is worth $555 million over three years to average $185 million per year. The first year will be less than $185 million, the second year will be around that number, and the final year will be above $185 million. 

There is also an option for a fourth year in the new TV deal that would be a substantial increase in money for All Elite Wrestling. 

As part of the new TV deal, AEW Dynamite will continue to air on Wednesday nights on TBS and AEW Collision will air on Saturday nights on TNT. Both shows will also air live on the Max streaming service and AEW pay-per-views will be available later in 2025 on Max at a discounted price for subscribers. 

AEW Rampage is set to be cancelled when the new TV deal begins, but AEW may revive Dark as the new arrangement with WBD means AEW content is no longer exclusive to the media conglomerate.
