AEW sues TrillerTV for nearly $5 million in pending payments

POSTwrestling.com is reporting that AEW has filed a lawsuit against TrillerTV claiming that they are owed almost $5 million in payments.

The lawsuit was filed on April 29 in Duval County Court in Florida according to Brandon Thurston.

The payments come from TrillerTV’s offering of AEW pay-per-views and the monthly AEW Plus service, both of which have been discontinued.

“[Triller Group Inc.’s] strategy of robbing revenues generated by TrillerTV’s distribution of AEW content to cover other of Defendants’ operating expenses (much of which was spent on the social media platform endeavor) negatively impacted its relationship with and payments owed to AEW,” the lawsuit stated.

AEW was supposed to receive 75% of the net revenue from domestic pay-per-view sales and 65% of the net revenue from international sales. When it came to AEW Plus, AEW got 60% while Triller got the remaining 40%.

TrillerTV no longer offers AEW on its service and it was replaced by AEW’s own MyAEW streaming service.
