All Elite Wrestling's new media rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery may not be an exclusive arrangement.

Dave Meltzer has reported on Wrestling Observer Radio that AEW are in talks with other media companies for different content and the promotion may not be set to ink an exclusive contract with WBD.

"There are negotiations going on when it comes to outside of WBD. I mean it's not, there's stuff that will go on WBD, there's stuff that is being negotiated for outside of WBD. I don't know where the status of those deals are but it does not look like necessarily an exclusive deal with WBD," Meltzer said.

This doesn't mean All Elite Wrestling's future with WBD is in jeopardy, however, and the media rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery appears to be almost done, with Tony Khan indicating following All Out there is a 90 per cent chance the new arrangement will be officially announced within the next month.

AEW content has aired on TNT or TBS since the promotion was founded in 2019. AEW Dynamite currently airs on TBS on Wednesday nights. AEW Rampage is broadcast on TNT on Friday nights before Collision on Saturday nights on the same channel.
