dynamite gonna be like 2.5 hours tonight

 

As long as they keep playing stuff on TBS/Triller I'll be happy since I honestly don't know anyone who could give me their Max creds lol.

 

huge meh at the deal. don't see anything on the tape library and max is still charging for the ppvs. those were the only things i cared about and they would've been game changers.

 

Real talk

how the fuck did NXT do 900k on the CW. I refuse to believe that trash ass channel is in that many households


Bring back riverdale

 

Isn’t CW primarily a basic tv channel? Like regular over the airwaves?

 

Yep. That’s a big reason for the increase in numbers. It’s available in a ton more homes.

 

cw is in way more households but nobody watches it. nxt will be the most viewed show on the network and it probably won't be close

 

from uncle dave if anyone cares--


MAX will also be home for the PPV events. The situation will be closer to the UFC model than the WWE model in the sense MAX will be starting a PPV component and AEW will be part of that. The price will be lower on MAX than it will be through other sources. The PPV events will remain available on regular television PPV channels, DirecTV and Dish, as well as places like Triller, YouTube and PPV.com But most of the marketing will be geared toward MAX and MAX will be promoting the events.

There are still aspects of the deal unclear at this point, such as whether it will move to the MAX sports tier when that gets started or stay with the regular tier. It’s likely that will be a WBD decision.

 

As someone that has MAX regardless, I will gladly take a discount on PPV’s. Glad AEW got the bag regardless of the specifics of the deal.

 

Very happy about this. Did not expect live streams.

My main question that they didn't bring up in the press release, will AEW and ROH's back catalogue be available on Max?

 

AEWs will be. I don't think ROHs will

I am shocked they were streaming Dynamite/Collision live. I will take that.

I thought it was just going to be back catalogue, maybe PPV distro, and Dynamite 3 weeks after it aired like WWE on streaming has been until their Netflix deal.

 

This brings me joy

danielson okada 60 minute draw tonight baby letsssssgettittttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

 

tape library is headed to max in january

 

Did they say what the discount will be for the ppvs?

 

In line for Dynamite baby

 

so pre-2025 ppvs won't be on max? kinda stinks

 

I’m glad I was able to transfer my BR purchases to Triller at least so I didn’t lose out on shows I purchased.
