William Regal’s AEW Safety Warning Exposes a 5-Year Crisis
William Regal publicly warned Tony Khan about AEW’s dangerous working style, and the response has been predictably defensive. But Regal wasn’t attacking the product—he was exposing a fundamental identity crisis five years in the making. AEW built its brand on creative freedom and high-risk wrestling. That freedom created incredible moments. It also created a culture where questioning safety became synonymous with not understanding the product. The injury list tells its own story: many serious injuries haven’t come from botches but from spots that went exactly as planned. That’s not bad luck—that’s a systemic problem. My bold prediction: within 18 months, either AEW implements significant safety protocols, or a catastrophic injury forces change from outside pressure. Something has to give.
Netflix Buys Warner Bros: What It Really Means for AEW and WWE Broadcasting
Netflix buying Warner Bros Discovery represents the biggest media consolidation in decades, and the wrestling world immediately panicked about AEW’s future. But is the sky really falling?
With WWE secured on Netflix through 2035 and AEW currently on Warner Bros’ TBS, TNT, and HBO Max, the proposed deal splits AEW’s distribution between Netflix (streaming) and Discovery Global (linear cable). The internet declared AEW finished. Dave Simon from Wrestling Uncensored pushed back hard.
The reality: AEW has a guaranteed contract through 2027, Netflix could easily afford both wrestling companies, and Canadian broadcast rights remain completely stable. The three-year, $555 million AEW deal costs a fraction of WWE’s $5 billion Netflix contract. Multiple streaming platforms could accommodate AEW when rights expire in 2028. Panic is premature.
