AEW Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships and Sales Justin Street has left the company and returned to Professional Bull Riders, which is owned by TKO, Mike Johnson of PWInsider reported.
Street left AEW in October. He had worked for PBR for about seven years before joining AEW.
Justin Street’s background
According to Street’s LinkedIn profile, he joined AEW in January 2025. He started at PBR in 2017 as Director of Partnership Marketing and worked his way up to Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships and Media Sales, a role he held for nine months before moving to AEW. He is a graduate of the University of Michigan.
His role at AEW covered the company’s corporate partnerships and sales, the side of the business that brings in sponsors and advertisers. AEW has not commented on his departure or said who will take over his duties.
PBR and TKO
PBR became part of TKO when TKO completed its acquisition of PBR, IMG and On Location from Endeavor on February 28, 2025, shortly after Street left PBR for AEW. That puts him back under the same corporate umbrella as WWE and UFC.
PBR runs more than 200 events a year, including its televised Unleash The Beast tour and the PBR Teams league, and its events air on CBS and Paramount+. PBR is also part of the seven-event deal TKO signed with the Arizona Sports & Events Alliance in May, alongside the 2027 Royal Rumble in Glendale.
Other AEW front office departures
Street is the latest AEW executive to leave in the past year. Nik Sobic, AEW’s Senior Vice President of Business Development, Partnerships and Video Games, left the company in January, Alex McCarthy of Wrestling Intel reported. Sobic had been with AEW since its founding in 2019 and played a major role in developing the AEW Fight Forever video game.
Jeremy Flynn, AEW’s Senior Marketing Director of Live Events, announced on X in November 2025 that Full Gear would be his last event with the company.
On the wrestling side, AEW is in Jacksonville tonight for Dynamite: Blood and Guts at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena. The show airs at 8 p.m. ET on TBS and HBO Max. Full Gear follows on Saturday, November 14, at Mortgage Matchup Center in Phoenix.
