AEW CEO Tony Khan Comments On Upcoming WBD/ESPN/Fox Sports Streaming Service

AEW/WBD

AEW President and CEO Tony Khan has commented on the newly announced WBD, ESPN and Fox Sports streaming service.

As previously reported, AEW’s TV partner Warner Bros. Discovery is set to launch a joint streaming service with ESPN and Fox Sports starting soon.

This move will put all the content from ESPN, TNT and Fox Sports on a new standalone streaming app.

In the process of this new venture, this will likely shake up the world of sports and how it is watched moving forward

In a new interview with Denise Salcedo, Tony Khan was asked what this collaborative streaming platform could mean for the company considering their relationship with WBD. He answered:

“It’s a really exciting time,” 

“AEW, we do not have a streaming platform that we are with domestically right now. It’s something the wrestling fans have been calling for.”

“We have the library, we have the content, and we also produce great new content, including the great pay-per-view events. There is a ton of opportunity in the market and clearly demand for it.”

“Seeing what’s happening in the industry right now, seeing other big streaming deals happening in wrestling.”

“In particular, for AEW, the stage is set for us to have a great media rights years. By the end of the year, we’ll know the home for AEW going forward.”
