Conspiracy theory: When AEW’s deal with Time Warner is up, WWE make their own pitch to Warner Media for those slots. It’s headed up by Cody and the idea is to do a new WCW. Uses that IP they’ve got that is just sitting there and allows them to expand and block out even more of the sun than they already do. They can also try and get it on its own streaming services while WWE prime ties up others. It seems WWE have working relationships with Peacock, Disney+ and Netflix, but it does leave Paramount+, Amazon and even Apple out there.
