>>15843956There is no deal. No chance a NASDAQ-traded company like WBD is going to keep it under wraps for several days while who knows how many people on the AEW side have insider information about a signed agreement, and could be leaking that insider information to other entities. Committing to pay well over $500,000,000 for AEW programming while the WBD/NBA Lawsuit outcome is still uncertain is the exact kind of situation that could cause WBD stock to swing wildly.
The 5 year anniversary of Dynamite #1 is 2 weeks from tomorrow, on a Wednesday - it could absolutely be made official earlier in the day and then reported. I don't know what it is with AEW Fan's insistence that Tony break the news live on Dynamite on Wednesdays at 8pm Eastern only on TBS, and that is HAS to be in the middle of the ring, and that fans HAVE to chant "FUCK YOU E-DRONES" immediately after while Tony milly-rocks and dabs on the haters. It's not happening.
