The relationship between AEW and Triller has taken a big turn for the worse. AEW has filed a lawsuit against Triller Group Inc. and TrillerTV for nearly $5 million in unpaid money from pay-per-view sales and AEW Plus, according to Brandon Thurston of PostWrestling.com. The lawsuit was filed on April 29 in Duval County Court in Florida.
Thurston adds that TrillerTV actually filed a separate lawsuit against Triller Group, Inc. back in early April. Parent company, Flipps Media Inc., told a Delaware Chancery Court that TrillerTV is insolvent. AEW launched MyAEW.com in March, and pulled AEW pay-per-views and AEW Plus from the Triller streaming platform.
Powell’s POV: I’ve enjoyed the TrillerTV product over the years, and it’s been home to countless independent events. Here’s hoping that TrillerTV can find a way to carry in some fashion when/if the parent company folds.
