Tony Khan Reveals His Next TV Deal Will Be Historic

AEW programming currently airs on TNT and TBS.

Tony Khan has worked hard to get good TV deals for both AEW Dynamite and AEW Rampage. AEW as a whole has really grown since starting back in 2019, now, they’re on a high rise to more success. Currently, AEW has a TV deal with WarnerMedia that will last until 2024. After that, Tony believes AEW is set to get even better deals. While speaking with Joseph Staszewski of the New York Post, Tony Khan promised that the media rights deal for AEW next time around will be historic.

I’m incredibly grateful every day that AEW has this great relationship with Warner Bros. Discovery and we’ve done well for TBS and TNT with “Dynamite” and “Rampage” where we’re a strong performer for Warner Bros. Discovery on a weekly basis. I think there is still a lot of time left for the next rights deal, but we have a great thing happening right now and I do believe our future media rights will be important and frankly a very large revenue stream for AEW going forward, and I think that’s because of the great support we’ve had from the fans and the hard work of everybody backstage and the wrestlers every Wednesday and Friday, pulling it together and delivering great shows. Whenever our next media right deal, the next one does kick in, it will be historic. It will be recorded in history because everything in wrestling is recorded in history into posterity. It will make history however it goes. Right now, everyone would expect very, very well. We expect it’s going to go very well for us based on how strong we’ve been performing.

We’ll have to wait a few years to see if Tony’s promise comes to reality, but, AEW programming will remain on TNT and TBS for the foreseeable future.
