Report: AEW PPVs to stream on Max in 2025

AEW’s pay-per-views will reportedly have a new home in 2025.

According to Andrew Zarian on today’s Mat Men podcast, they will stream on Warner Bros. Discovery’s streaming service MAX beginning in January, and possibly even sooner.

“They will be on MAX in January,” Zarian said. “They could do it sooner but I do know that they are planning on January. I do know that pay-per-views are going to be on there. They don’t have an exclusivity on the pay-per-views, so it will also be available other places. It’s like WWE is, you can still order those pay-per-views that are available on Peacock.”

Our own Dave Meltzer has a premium article up on the site for subscribers analyzing the reported deal. Meltzer noted that PPVs streaming on MAX is part of the package with WBD.

“Those close to the situation have confirmed MAX being part of the PPV package, although it’s not detailed yet as to what form this will take,” Meltzer wrote.

Longtime sports business journalist John Ourand reported recently that AEW and WBD are set to announce a new media rights deal as early as next week. During a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio, Tony Khan wouldn’t confirm the reports but did say he’s certain AEW will be on TBS and TNT for a long time.

“I know they have been reporting things that are very interesting. There are a lot of reports and rumors. I have not confirmed and Warner Brothers has not confirmed anything officially,” he said, adding he has not leaked any info. “I think we have a really exciting future there. I can say with 100% certainty, AEW and TBS and TNT are here to stay for a long time.”
