Tony Khan: I Can Say With 100% Certainty That AEW And TBS And TNT Are Here To Stay For A Long Time

AEW President Tony Khan has given another tease that a new TV deal with Warner Bros. Discovery is done.

As previously reported, a new television deal between AEW and Warner Bros. Discovery is close to being or is already done. On the flip side, AEW has been rumored to be in talks with FOX for a deal that would see a one-hour show named Shockwave.

A source indicated to Dave Meltzer that Rampage would not be continued as part of the new WBD deal. According to Puck, the AEW-WBD deal is four years with a three-year guarantee, including an option year to see AEW air programming twice weekly across TBS, TNT, and TruTV. The deal is said to be in a ‘ballpark figure’ around $170 million per year.

While interviewing Busted Open Radio, Khan noted that AEW will be on TBS and TNT for a long time.

“Well, I didn’t bring my sunglasses to the Sirus studio today but the future is so bright I need them. I should have asked….I need the future is that bright so we’re in that good of a position right now. I know there have been reports and things that are very interesting. There are a lot of reports and rumors. I have not confirmed and Warner Brothers has not confirmed anything officially….I think we have a really exciting future there. I can say with 100% certainty, AEW, TBS, and TNT are here to stay for a long time.”
