The AEW and WBD announcement is imminent.

Fightful Select has learned that promotional materials are prepared the AEW and WBD deal announcement is happening as soon as this afternoon unless things change.

Beyond the Bell's Andrew Zarian has reported extensively on the deal as well. SRS & Jimmy will be breaking down the deal on The Hump at 2 PM ET provided it is announced.

Please remember we can not control who has reported that the AEW-WBD is "coming imminently" prior, and this is out first announcement of such.

Edit: Hey guys, SRS here. I didn't type up this morning's report personally. Outside of interview notes, I will be moving forward. Apologies for the typos.

Update: Fightful Select and Beyond the Bell have learned that AEW Dynamite and Collision will be simulcast on Max starting in January.

There will be some integration of AEW PPVs for MAX subscribers, though we aren't sure if those are included with a subscription or discounted.

Early indications were that TruTv and AEW Rampage weren't included in the upcoming announcement.
