In a conference call with reporters ahead of Saturday’s Full Gear pay-per-view, AEW President Tony Khan was asked a variety of questions regarding the Skydance takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery and AEW’s future.

Khan said that he had four meetings with Skydance and its chief, David Ellison, has a “high opinion” of AEW as the company has performed very well for WBD. Khan also pointed out that he never negotiated with Ellison.

Khan also mentioned that since there’s a lot of time on the current contract, he was not going to “chase people around,” and admitted that they have not talked about a new deal. He said that the U.S. television rights deal is what keeps the AEW engine going.

The AEW President added that AEW has been a top show on cable and a top show for the WBD properties, saying that he won’t be “chasing down dollars” but focusing on what AEW has done for WBD when it comes to negotiations.

Khan remained upbeat and positive that a deal will be worked out and his preference is to remain on TNT, TBS, and HBO Max in the future.
