Further bolstering its global pop culture infiltration, AEW has launched impressive collections of video games, action figures, trading cards, merchandise and more.
Powell’s POV: While terms were not disclosed, international streaming deals obviously add to the company’s revenue while also giving fans outside North America exposure to the company.
