Update on WWE-WDB rumors (Patreon)
Content
Jim Miller caused a bit of a stir in noting that he wouldn’t be surprised if WBD was interested in WWE content if they lose the NBA.
Based on information Fightful has received, that hasn’t been the case. Several WWE higher ups had inquired as to whether or not that’s something people within the industry have heard, and noted that they’d not heard about that whatsoever. We’re told there haven’t been conversations regarding WWE with Warner Bros. Discovery. There have been conversations with several places that serve as possibilities, however.
On the other side, sources at Warner Bros. Discovery actually tell us the opposite. There was nothing ill of WWE noted in our conversations, but they indicated that WBD is gearing up to substantially expand their relationship with All Elite Wrestling from both a financial and content perspective that will become evident soon. It was hinted that this involves the upcoming Collision show, as well as more possible content.
