Tony Khan responds to AEW profitability questions, TBS title plan, July PPV & All In 2027
AEW head Tony Khan was asked a variety of questions during Thursday’s pre-Double or Nothing media call including questions on the company’s profitability, if they are having a new pay-per-view in July, the TBS title’s future and more.
The full audio from the call can be found here along with this breakout on his comments on Mick Foley’s wrestling future in AEW.
AEW profitability
Khan was asked by Wrestlenomics’ Brandon Thurston about if AEW is profitable. Khan said that AEW revenue is “the highest it’s ever been,” but that he couldn’t comment on where every expense currently is. He said that with the revenue, it has been the perfect time to “double down” and reinvest in AEW including digital and international projects that will continue to both grow the company in the future.
The TBS title plan
Khan was asked what the plan is for the now-vacant TBS title. He said that will be addressed after Double or Nothing.
A new July pay-per-view?
Asked about the rumored new AEW PPV for July, Khan said that is something he is “very interested in” but only if it was “additive” to the product, noting that adding one would be potentially lucrative.
Where will AEW All In be in 2027?
Asked if All In will return to Wembley Stadium again in 2027, Khan said he doesn’t have his schedule planned for next year but will continue to take “big swings” with the yearly event. He reiterated that he is very excited for this year’s show in London.
