Matt Hardy Says Nobody Backstage In AEW Is Concerned About WarnerMedia Merger

During the latest edition of the Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, Hardy spoke about the AEW locker room's reaction to the Warner Bros./Discovery merger.

“There’s zero, I don’t know of anyone that has been concerned about it. I haven’t seen any kind of worry or concern. It’s just business as usual and for the foreseeable future, I continue to see it as business as usual. Especially because the Dynamite show is doing great, it’s in the top five every single week, it’s a live program which people love and are really behind. You have to remember it’s only three years old, which is quite a statement that it’s in the top three to top five every week.”

On AEW's prospects with Warner Media:

“I also think Papa Khan is going to have another big TV deal whenever this runs out as well. Because the product has just been delivering so damn well. Pro wrestling has proven, especially over the last few years, that it is truly something that people will search out and they will find it and they will watch it. They will also stick through the commercials majority of the time too. It’s crazy, they’re really loyal, pro wrestling fans are very, very loyal and it’s a great place for advertisers to go for the product.”
