So, the average is actually $185M per year and $555 million guaranteed.

At All-In, these same people were thrilled to get a Cracker Barrel sponsorship.

I think that part of it is a solid deal for sure. Would have been great if the ppv's were just a part of Max as that would garner even more exposure.. - Remlik Oct 3, 09:45 4
- Doubled would be more than WWE. And Zaslav wasn’t going to take a loss here. -- nm - David Oct 3, 10:15 3
  - Here's what I don't understand. How do you even know if you're taking a loss from any particular item in streaming? -- nm - pmb Oct 3, 11:24
  - How you get double? Raw is 500mil a year, Smackdown is 250mil …so this is like 1-4th of WWE’s current rights. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 3, 10:34 1
    - I was only referencing Raw, which was a reported $500 million but probably lower since WWE always lies up. AEW is pacing for $215-$220 million. - David Oct 3, 11:02
