Update On AEW's New Television Deal On TNT

In an update on the news that AEW's television contract being extended with TNT, Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer is reporting that the deal is worth $175 million, around $45 million per year.

TNT will also have the option to renew the broadcasting rights in 2024 at an increased cost, which will make AEW profitable for the foreseeable.

Here is what Meltzer said:

"When the new show launches, the Wednesday tapings would expand and also include matches taped for the streaming show Dark which is not going away. This means there will be four hours a week of the product, allowing more time to showcase more talent, which has been limited by the current format."
