Well the quality is superior on both. I wish they both confused my face with a chair and sat down for a long rest.

That does seem to be the current rumor about which Turner network is getting it.
Would also mean Turner would be directly competing against itself in sports since AEW is categorized as a sports show though just like NBC did with the NHL and NXT. |

Sounds like AEW is safe either way. Contracted in that spot until 2023.

i don't think the hockey fans and the wrestling fans are the same they can do both at the same time.

Canada TV and Hockey?
AEW is on a TSN subchannel. TSN shows basketball. WWE/NXT is on Sportsnet360. Sportsnet also shows hockey and Blue Jays baseball |

Think in terms of sports fans, UFC/MMA and wrestling fans are a lot closer together than basketball or hockey fans.
Part of it has to do with most notable sheets outlet reports on both MMA and wrestling and the other part has to do with UFC's boom in the early to mid-2000s hit wrestling the hardest for lost fans. |

From what I’ve learned spending the past few years in Canada, everyone likes hockey to some extent and the percentage of people who like or have liked wrestling on some level is oddly high. So I’d say pretty much any Canadian who still watches wrestling would have a decision to make if there’s a hockey game at the same time.

And while on the subject, I get the feeling being here that Bret Hart is not as beloved in Canada as I thought he was. A lot of hardcore fans love him. But I don’t think it’s that much different than the hardcore fans in the US who love him. Though maybe the years have been unkind to his legacy here.

Seems ESPN taking away the more valuable of the two NHL contracts in terms of Stanley Cup airings was a key reason why NBC eventually pulled out from the negotiations and opened the door for Turner to step in.
At one point they were offering more money than what was their final offer to keep the NHL but that changed after ESPN snagged the first deal.

I’ve also been lambasted for not knowing who certain hockey legends are. And Terry Fox. If you’re an American in Canada and you don’t know who Terry Fox is, you might as well be from another planet. |

NHL is gonna feel weird not being on NBC/Sports. I wonder if Turner could pull Doc outta retirement?
I think they can make it work...if it's a big Wednesday night hockey game AEW can air later or broadcast on TBS/TruTV. |

I think Stu was far more beloved in Canada, and Bret was just another one of Stu's kids, albeit the most successful one. |

TNA popped a decent number supposedly for Rebellion. Kenny Omega drawing isn’t a bad thing.
