What happened
Tony Khan discussed the goals of MyAEW, the AEW-owned streaming service, which is currently in its infancy. The platform partners with several outside promotions, including promotional partner CMLL and independent companies like Produce and 1FW, to air their shows. Khan stated that while he was open to the idea of adding video libraries from defunct promotions like Pro Wrestling Guerilla or Lucha Underground, his main goal was to broadcast live content from other companies to help them expand their presence.

Why it matters
The discussion outlines a potential new distribution model for smaller companies seeking exposure. Khan explained that MyAEW offers a way for smaller companies and their wrestlers to grow their business and gain more opportunities by featuring their shows on the platform. The viability of this model depends on the specific situation of each company.
