Warner Bros. Discovery Working on AEW \’Outside The Ring\’ Content

ByAndrew RavensProfessional Wrestling Journalist

Warner Bros. Discovery continues to be happy with the television ratings of AEW.

Since the merger in April, there has been a lot of synergy between AEW and WBD with multiple events having WBD branding and the company sending out press releases touting AEW ratings.

Currently, AEW Dynamite airs every Wednesday night on TBS, while AEW Rampage airs every Friday night on TNT. Four Battle of the Belts specials also air throughout the year.

While speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Kathleen Finch, Warner Bros. Discovery US Networks Group chair and chief content officer, discussed how TNT and TBS can maintain a male audience over time. 

\”We really play in the sports space. One of the things that we’re doing around sports is creating shoulder programming to hold onto those fans. AEW [All Elite Wrestling] pulls huge numbers, so we are working with the wrestling team to figure out what new kind of content can we build that’s not in a wrestling ring,\” she said.

TNT previously aired \”Rhodes To The Top,\” a reality show starring Cody & Brandi Rhodes before the married couple left All Elite Wrestling earlier this year.
