During a recent edition of his “The ARN Show,” podcast, Arn Anderson discussed AEW’s new media rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery, the absence of a show on Halloween during the Jim Crockett Promotions era, and other topics.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On AEW's new media rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery: "I'm very happy for for Tony Khan and all of his crew, everybody that works there. I mean like I said, we need — when wrestling is flourishing, it notoriously is [that] every available company is doing well. It's just, when they catch on fire then it just causes competition that everybody's a better product. And so, that's what I hope for. Let's see how it goes."

On Jim Crockett Promotions not running on Halloween: "I wouldn't have at first glance that we would have done that. Because kids were a big part of our audience, and Halloween is a big deal for kids. I would say we would have ran a day before it or a day after it, depending on if it fell. And if it failed during the week, you could run a TV taping. And if it fell on a TV taping day, you would just have some of the guys and girls dress up in costumes and make it a Halloween theme."
