Warner Bros. Discovery Set To Launch Live Max Sports Tier, + More News

CNBC is reporting that Warner Bros. Discovery is looking to launch a live sports tier for their Max streaming service this fall. The current plan is to have the launch coincide with the MLB playoffs (October 3rd).

The company is planning to simulcast games from the MLB, NBA, NHL, and NCAA including March Madness on Max. It’s worth noting that AEW content is not mentioned in the report, as their pay-per-view events remain exclusive to Bleacher Report for now. With that being said, the plan is to brand the new tier using the Bleacher Report name.

In other news, AEW stars Danhausen, Ethan Page and Wardlow recently appeared on a panel at the “Terrificon” convention where they discussed their past tag-team runs in All Elite Wrestling.

You can check out some highlights from the panel below:

Danhausen on his run with HOOK: “I think Hookhausen had some more gas in the tank. I hear about it every single day. That wasn’t a rivalry, but the teaming of us.”

Page on his team with Scorpio Sky: “Me personally, I would say myself and Scorpio Sky definitely have some unfinished business. And I would love to finish that up.”

Wardlow on his time with Samoa Joe: “For me, it was most definitely Samoa Joe. We are capable of so much more. I envision myself and Joe being so much more than what it was.”

Wardlow on potentially teaming with Powerhouse Hobbs: “I’m done wrestling Powerhouse Hobbs. I think we’d make a hell of a tag team.”
