5 things you need to know about All Elite Wrestling

#1 A big television deal could be on the table

Will AEW get a big TV deal?

The most important thing All Elite Wrestling need right now is a television deal on a big network. Earlier, rumors had suggested that thanks to the connections the Khan family had, it had opened a number of doors for AEW.

Chris Jericho recently shed more light on the matter in a recent interview with Busted Open Radio:

"As far as TV goes, I mean that’s one of the things, I wouldn’t have gone to All Elite if there wasn’t a strong TV deal on the table and there’s a couple that I know that are on the table that are like, ‘Wow, that’s what they need.' By me joining the company I think fans, and wrestlers most importantly think, ‘holy shit, if Jericho went there this is the real deal.’ And yes, the television deals that are being talked about, once again nothing is set in stone, but if it’s one of the three that I know people will go okay this is the real deal.” (H/T: WrestleZone)
