Things make no sense for aew to get an increase. They average 800k,250k, and 450k for three shows. WB is 50 billion in debt and slashing things left and right. Willing to shelve 100 million productions to save a paltry 15Ms on taxes. Willing to lose an entire night of nba to save money.

I just don't get how any executive at wb pulls the trigger on 100m a year. It also seems like wwe is low key struggling to shop raw around.

If AEW doesn't see a significant increase that will change a lot. Tony can continue to throw money at it but that would signify no real coming back from it.

Eye of the beholder. If they're happy, they'll pay up. Plus, pretty sure WBD is a minority owner in AEW and has a financial stake in their success.

TK said that's not true. I doubt it's true only because I don't think WBD would give a fukk enough to invest in a wrestling promotion given all the shake ups they've had over the past few years.

Saying it's not true =/= it not being true. If WBD owns a piece of AEW, it's probably no more than 5-10% of the company.
