McMullen pointed out that a deal of this nature is unprecedented for a start-up and that it took WWE 35 years before they hit the level of money they make today off TV rights. I'd credit it getting done to Tony Khan's relationship with WarnerMedia.
So basically something similar to what the XFL got with the ability to turn into a normal tv deal after a few years.
