Big moves will be made in 2024 as SmackDown will be jumping to USA Network and NXT will be jumping to the CW. At this point a new home for Raw has not been announced, but it seems that Warner Bros. Discovery could be a a potential options for WWE.
Dave Meltzer discussed the current status of Raw on Wrestling Observer Radio and noted that the belief is the deal for Raw’s TV rights will be finalized soon. It was also noted that CM Punk’s return to WWE may have opened what was once a shut door. It’s being said that a deal between WWE and Warner Bros. Discovery may not be as dead as it seemed, but WBD may not want to pay the amount that WWE is looking for.
“I think that there will be stuff in the next couple of weeks most likely. It could be the final deal…it could end up with the status quo. It’s not impossible. It could end up with incredible differences. Just got to wait it out and see. The main thing though is WWE and WBD is not a dead deal and it appeared to be a dead deal before. If they take the deal, it would require WBD to spend well over $350 million per year…WBD may not want to go that high anyway.”
AEW is also in negotiations, so it seems that regardless of how things turn out 2024 will be a big year for professional wrestling as there’s potential for certain shows to move to different nights.
