The best thing for AEW would be to strike up deals with promotions they're on good terms with - PWG, DDT, AAA, Gatoh Move, whoever else - about securing some archive footage to flesh out an existing program. AEW itself is too new to do much in the way of diving into the "vault", but using older footage to pad out empty arena matches, promos and vignettes wouldn't be the worst way to continue to produce TV.

Problem is, networks have paid for original content, not archive footage. AEW and WWE almost certainly get a pass for this due to the unprecedented shit going on...but they're not willing to push back.
