AEW To Enter The UK Market, Announces PPV And Possible TV Deal

Let the momentum continue. According to the latest issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, AEW will be entering the UK Market with its upcoming Double or Nothing pay-per-view event.

They recently announced that Double or Nothing will be carried in the UK from 1 to 5 a.m. early Sunday morning, May 26, on ITV Box Office for 14.95 pounds ($19.44 U.S.). It should be noted that the UK traditionally has far cheaper PPV prices than the U.S., Canada and Australia, whether it be boxing or WWE.

In addition, there will be a one hour pre-show, called “BUY-IN”, at midnight airing on ITV 4, featuring the Casino Battle Royale as well as a singles match with Sammy Guevara vs. Kip Sabian.

The ITV 4 deal is leading to speculation that it would carry AEW’s weekly shows. A deal is not currently in place, however.

Editor’s Thoughts:

I can see AEW being huge in the UK market. They have a large fan base of rabid fans, and many people over there would love to see this content on a regular basis.
