Oh fucking hell I hope they didn't use real barbed wire. Cuz barbed wire can tear you to pieces, even if it's shaved down.

Hope they used the excuse that what that cocksucker fan was doing wasn't appropriate for TV to get rid of his ass. That's horrible.

Per Fightful Select, the deal between WBD and AEW is believed to be held "very close to the vest," with the summer or fall of 2024 being the likely time frame for an official announcement. In the meantime, AEW has reportedly partnered with WBD to bring forth a pilot for a new program that is slated to be introduced this week. While the concept of this program is still relatively unknown, it is not expected to be a reality series.

In addition to their impending media rights and AEW-related program announcements, Fightful Select indicates that Warner Bros. Discovery has expressed interest in implementing AEW pay-per-views into the lineup of the MAX streaming service — a platform that is currently owned by WBD. Discussions on this idea are said to have been spanned for "quite some time" between the two parties, with some contract proposals beginning as far back as 2023. AEW President Tony Khan recently confirmed these negotiations with WBD, stating that one of his long-term goals was to bring AEW to MAX. To achieve that, though, Khan noted that both parties had to be fully on board with the potential agreement.

RJ City and Renee Paquette look to prove we've been watching wrestling wrong as they look to break bread and break tables with some of the biggest names in AEW!

Eddie Kingston joins them for a dive into great action and great Dallas food in the premiere of Meal and a Match.

Jaysus, that landing could have ended up causing a lot of damage to his leg.
