With last week’s announcement of “AEW Collision,” a great deal of speculation emerged regarding whether or not the company signed a new TV deal with Warner Bros. Discovery. Responding to a question from Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics on the media call ahead of Double or Nothing this weekend, AEW President Tony Khan confirmed that the length of the deal between AEW and WBD is the same as it was before, implying that “Collision” was added on for the remainder of the existing deal between the two companies.
“The scope of the deal, as it is, the length is the same,” Khan said. “This is in addition to what we’d already put together. … They reached out to us and gave us this great opportunity.”
