Tony Khan reveals Rampage will be replaced by a seething mass of jittering tendrils, pulsating with unknowable intent. “It’s an exciting new direction,” he says, as the eldritch entity begins to consume the arena. "Where's the story?" bemoans Bischoff. 🤼Tony Khan reveals Rampage will be replaced by a seething mass of jittering tendrils, pulsating with unknowable intent. “It’s an exciting new direction,” he says, as the eldritch entity begins to consume the arena.

Yeah, I think the brand was kinda shot at this point.

Notes from Meltzer from the Observer paywall: The deal is worth upwards of $150M/year per Variety, potentially more with all factors included. The deal spans 3 years, with an optional 4th year at a significant price increase. Rampage to be canned; AEW is shopping Shockwave to other networks. 🤼

Interesting additional reporting from the Sports Business Journal. The duration and figure coincides with past reporting from Zarian, Meltzer et Al. I believe this is the first time we hear about WBD having an equity stake in AEW, outside of rumors and speculation. 🤼

The Sports Business Journal also said something interesting: "WBD also keeps its equity stake in AEW, but the size of it was not disclosed." That's something Brandon Thurston has speculated on for years. Why, if WBD owns a stake, did they allow AEW to negotiate with others?

It's starting to feel safe to assume that Rampage is dead. 🤼It's starting to feel safe to assume that Rampage is dead. 🤼
