All Elite Wrestling’s media rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery is set to expire later this year. The company is still in negotiations with WBD to renew the agreement.
Earlier this month, WWE ended its five-year partnership with Fox and moved SmackDown to USA Network. In an interview with QUEENZFLIP, Swerve Strickland said AEW is heading to FOX because SmackDown no longer airs on FOX.
“We’re about to move; we’re about to get on Fox, cause SmackDown’s leaving Fox, and then we’re taking Fox. TNT, TBS, and Fox, we got all three of them things. Tony Khan lets me do whatever the f–k I want.”
