>The ending of Dynamite, which featured the debut of Satnam Singh, was designed to build the AEW brand in India, and has a lot to do with the WarnerMedia/Discovery merger.
>AEW has been on television on the Discovery-owned channel Eurosport India, a deal Tony Khan made based on the impending merger. As part of the first week after the Discovery merger, Tony Khan wanted to shoot an angle that would be a breakthrough in that market using someone of some renown in that country as the only Indian-born player ever drafted by the NBA, when Singh was a second round draft choice of the Dallas Mavericks in 2015, even though he never played college basketball or pro basketball overseas.
>Singh never made the NBA, but played several years in the NBA summer league, G League, and National Basketball League of Canada. He was signed by AEW in September in an attempt to create a star for the India market.
>Singh will be managed by Sonjay Dutt, who gained notoriety in India years back when he wrestled for TNA when TNA had a following in India, and both will be used to promote AEW on Eurosport India in that market. Singh, Dutt and Jay Lethal will be a group on AEW television and pushed as a lead act in promotion of the brand in India.
