Earlier this month, the new multi-year multimedia rights deal between AEW and Warner Bros. Discovery was officially announced.
The deal is worth $555 million over three years, not including the revenue from PPV events. AEW pay-per-views will be available on Max later in 2025 at a discounted price per event.
Dynamite and Collision will remain on TBS and TNT. The AEW pay-per-view library will be available on MAX. Still, it won’t be added on January 1st as past AEW TV episodes.
On October 25, AEW filed for the trademark rights to several terms, including AEW WrestleMax, WrestleMax, and AEW Max Month, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Both are filed under entertainment services. Here is the description:
“Entertainment in the nature of wrestling contests; Entertainment services in the nature of live wrestling performances; Entertainment services in the nature of production of wrestling programs and events; Entertainment services, namely, an ongoing multimedia program featuring wrestling distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; Entertainment services, namely, production and distribution of ongoing television programs in the field of wrestling.”
AEW returns to pay-per-view with Full Gear next month.
