Warner Bros Discovery are very happy with AEW.
Since AEW Dynamite went on the air in 2019, AEW programming has called Warner Bros Discovery home when it comes to their TV rights.
Recently, it was announced that Friday Night SmackDown would be moving to the USA Network next year in a huge TV rights deal that has sent shockwaves through the wrestling industry.
Fightful Select has now provided an update on how this announcement has effects AEW and their deal with WBD.
AEW and WBD as of a few weeks ago were unable to come to terms on a deal which we’re told would include AEW television rights, PPV, as well as the library. Those at WBD stated that Khan has a a particular value that he believes the AEW library is worth.
WBD sources that we spoke to said that they’ve been very happy with the AEW partnership and look for it to continue.

We will have to wait and see if Khan will get his wish, but the TV rights deal for AEW is coming up soon also.
It was previously reported that AEW are hoping for more money on their deal due to WWE’s recent negotiations.
