Tony Khan Says His Relationship With WBD Is "Great", Had Recent Talks
Tony Khan and WBD have been talking recently
Dec 16, 2023
There have been rumblings over the last week of a potential deal between WWE and Warner Bros Discovery when it comes to the TV rights of Monday Night RAW, something that could put a huge spanner in the works for AEW’s programming on TNT and TBS going forwards.
Tony Khan doesn’t seem to be affected by this though, commenting on his relationship with WBD during the ROH Final Battle 2023 media scrum. Khan spoke on the future of ROH and a TV deal with WBD.
"Ring of Honor, we haven’t had recently as many, but we’ve had really good conversations about AEW, even in recent days, I’ve had really good talks with Warner Brothers Discovery. We’ve been with them for several years, it’s a really exciting time for AEW…
"We’re performing incredibly well for Warners Brothers Discovery and we’re a very strong relationship. With media rights and all the things coming up, everyone has to do their due diligence. It’s just part of the TV business. Where we stand, we stand in a position for AEW to have a huge growth year in 2024. There are a lot of really exciting things happening that I know Warner Brothers is excited about, that we’ve talked about.”
Of course, Khan didn’t specifically comment about a TV deal and whether or not it will likely be WWE or AEW who ends up with WBD.
