All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is stepping into a new streaming era.

In an official press release, the company announced that its pay-per-view events will now be available directly on HBO Max, marking the next phase of AEW’s nearly six-year relationship with the Warner Bros. Discovery family of networks.

The rollout begins Saturday, Sept. 20, when AEW All Out broadcasts live from Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena at 3 p.m. ET.

Starting Friday, September 5, HBO Max subscribers in the U.S. can pre-order the event for $39.99 on supported devices. Once purchased, the show will appear under “My Purchases” in the app’s “My Stuff” menu, with replays available exclusively for six months. Streams will be ad-free and supported in HDR10 and Dolby Atmos.

To build momentum for the rollout, AEW and Warner Bros. Discovery are lining up two major lead-in shows.

On Wednesday, September 17, TBS and HBO Max will air September to Remember, a special three-hour live broadcast from London, Ontario, starting at 8 p.m. ET.

Then, just before the pay-per-view, TNT and HBO Max will present AEW Saturday Tailgate Brawl: All Out at 2 p.m. ET, a one-hour special designed to set the stage for the main event.

The partnership doesn’t stop at live pay-per-views. HBO Max subscribers now have access to hundreds of hours of AEW content, including weekly episodes of Dynamite on TBS and Collision on TNT, both live simulcasts and on-demand replays.

Fans can also watch all AEW pay-per-view specials through the end of 2024, plus every episode from the first two years of Dynamite alongside recent installments of both flagship shows.

The move comes during a year of record reach for the promotion. AEW programming has already drawn more than 11 million viewers across TNT and TBS in 2025.

Dynamite consistently holds the No. 1 spot on Wednesday nights among adults 18–49, while Collision ranks among the top five Saturday programs for that same demographic.
