Does Netflix wants the whole thing or just the movie studios? I mean adding tv channels to Netflix would be huge, it is something Disney+ has that Netflix doesn't.

Smackdown didn't get cancelled. It continues to air on the USA network. Rampage and Shockwave got cancelled, however.

Smackdown never got canceled which is why it's still on the air. You're deranged and retarded I'm afraid. And yes, AEW is ending up on youtube or whatever because WBD is cancelling it for performing far below their expectations.

Netflix would be in business with WWE but would own AEW. This would incentivize Netflix to drop WWE after the 5 year checkpoint in their deal and go with their in-house wrestling company, AEW

Reality check: Netflix would instantly shitcan AEW because their contract with WWE would prohibit them airing the competition.

The only way an AEW streaming service would succeed is if Tony could somehow convince NJPW and CMLL into doing something like Wrestle Universe with him where you offer a bunch of promotions for one price.

Its not great either way because it just means another corporation is getting even bigger but Netflix buying it is probably the worst-case scenario for fans of actual art and entertainment. Laughing at AEW is literally the only positive of this.
