News reportedly coming soon on AEW PPV availability on HBO Max

The question of whether AEW pay-per-views will become available for purchase on HBO Max will reportedly be answered soon.
Wrestling Observer Live Sunday host Andrew Zarian posted on X Thursday that he is “hearing that there will be an announcement regarding AEW PPVs on HBO Max in the coming weeks…”
The ability to purchase AEW PPVs on the app of their U.S. broadcast rights partner was part of AEW’s new TV/streaming rights deal that kicked off this past January. When Khan was asked about an update on a media call earlier this year, he said there was no timetable ever given or an expectation that technology would be available in the first half of the year.
AEW has four PPVs remaining in 2025 with September’s All Out, October’s WrestleDream, November’s Full Gear and December’s Worlds End.
AEW archive content and weekly simulcasts of both Dynamite and Collision are available on the service curently.
In the United States, AEW PPVs are available on the heavily-pushed Amazon Prime, Fubo TV, PPV.com and YouTube in addition to traditional cable & satellite outlets. Whether this capability would be available worldwide for Max subscribers worldwide is unknown. The service is currently available in over 90 markets across North America, Latin America, the Caribbean, Europe, and Asia Pacific.
