Warner Bros Discovery potentially interested in getting WWE programming

With the WWE recently getting sold to Endeavor, the next order of business for the company is negotiating new television deals.

The WWE’s current TV deals, one with USA Network for Monday Night Raw and the other with Fox for Friday Night SmackDown, expire in 2024.

While CEO Nick Khan has said NBC Universal (which owns USA) and Fox will have right of first refusal on new deals, there could be a very interesting player in the mix for WWE programming.

Appearing on the latest SI Media With Jimmy Traina, journalist and author Jim Miller revealed that Warner Brothers Discovery, which includes TBS and TNT, is interested in WWE television.

When asked whether there are other companies, besides NBC and Fox, who would like to get in business with the WWE, Miller said, "I think so. And I wouldn’t be surprised, despite the fact that money is such an issue for them, I wouldn’t be surprised if Warner Brothers Discovery wouldn’t like a slice of that WWE pie.”

This would be a significant development since Turner currently airs programming for AEW on Wednesday and Friday nights. But Turner’s possibly getting into business with the WWE wasn’t the only bombshell dropped by Miller.

“Monday Night does not have to be on Monday night," said Miller. Monday night is a tough night, because if you go through the calendar all year round, there’s sports on Monday night. And you could, if you’re Warner Brothers Discovery, you could say, we’re gonna move it to a different night, we could have the NBA on Thursday night, but we’re gonna figure out a different night for it and all of a sudden it becomes very attractive."

When asked whether Warner Brothers Discovery would want WWE programming in addition to AEW programming or instead of AEW programming, Miller say, “I don’t know. I just know there are people at Warner Brothers who are interested [in WWE].”
