AEW recently signed a multi-year broadcast rights deal with FOX Sports Mexico, allowing them to air all AEW programming, starting with WrestleDream on October 12.
A new show called the “All Elite Show” debuted on Monday nights. This means AEW and WWE will share the same broadcast network in Mexico for a short period. WWE plans to move all of its programming to Netflix once its global deals expire, including in Mexico.
However, for now, WWE will have to deal with AEW ads airing during shows like RAW, something the Wrestling Observer noted is likely frustrating for WWE:
“The first FOX Mexico show was the pay-per-view (WrestleDream) on Saturday night. [This week] was the interesting one because WWE is still on FOX Sports Mexico until the end of the year when the Netflix (deal) goes into effect.
AEW started Saturday night so their shows are on too, they’ve got both companies on.
So during RAW [this week] every break or at least most of the breaks, they had commercials for AEW and I’m sure WWE must love this.
Then right after RAW ended they had an AEW news show with a RAW lead-in.
WWE didn’t have exclusivity on this station, the station knows they’re leaving and from a station standpoint isn’t the smartest thing you could do is promote the hell out of the new company during RAW and probably SmackDown? Probably that’s the way to do it.
I don’t think WWE is particularly thrilled when it comes to that stuff.”
