AEW Dynamite - 6/3

All Elite Wrestling revealed on the Road to Double or Nothing that WWE Hall of Famer and founding member of the Four Horsemen Tully Blanchard will be managing Shawn Spears going forward.
Obviously, Blanchard has a long history with the Rhodes family. This is all leading to Cody vs. Shawn Spears at the 8/31 All Out PPV.
 
TNT officially launched two social media platforms for All Elite Wrestling on their network this morning, using the tag line "Are You Elite?", which could be a marketing slogan for the forthcoming weekly series.

UPDATE: WWE Reportedly Interested in Purchasing FITE TV, FITE Denies Rumors | 411MANIA | Wrestling News, WWE & AEW Results

WWE is said to be interested in purchasing FITE TV, according to a new report.

WWE Reportedly Interested in Purchasing FITE TV

WWE is said to be interested in purchasing FITE TV, according to a new report. The WON reports that the company’s interest is sincere enough that there are upcoming meetings about the possibility. FITE currently functions as the streaming home for a number of MMA, boxing and wrestling companies, notably including AEW. They just announced on Thursday that they are partnering with MLW to distribute the promotion’s PPVs worldwide.

It is worth noting that just because WWE is interested doesn’t mean that FITE’s owners will will be interested in selling, or that WWE will find the deal ultimately worth pursuing. It isn’t clear exactly what this would mean if WWE did buy it, as they could simply run it as a separate entity or fold it into a higher-tiered version of the WWE Network among other possibilities. It would obviously have a big impact on the independent companies that have deals with FITE for distribution, and would almost certainly leave AEW without their services. AEW also airs on B/R Live though, and they could also partner with another streaming partner.

Tony Schivaone has been locked into a deal by All Elite Wrestling, which headed WWE, who also had interest in Schiavone, off at the pass. As late as Wednesday, WWE was still pursuing a Schiavone deal but we are told he he agreed to terms with AEW this past Thursday.

Schiavone, who is signed to a MLW contract, will continue on with Major League Wrestling, PWInsider has confirmed, so there will be a lot of Schiavone on cable TV in the months ahead.

The AEW deal would bring Schiavone back to TNT, where he was the lead announcer for Monday Nitro.
