Brandon Thurston is reporting via PostWrestling.com that AEW
is suing Ring Productions LLC, the company behind the
production of the movie Queen of the Ring, for $105,000 for
unpaid sponsorship fees.
AEW had a deal of $350,000 with the company to promote the
movie through various methods, including trailers playing at
AEW events, ringside appearances, and other digital
advertising.
Now, AEW is claiming in the lawsuit that Ring Productions
LLC still owes them $100,000 in unpaid sponsorship fees and
$5,000 in travel costs plus a 1.5% interest.
AEW’s Toni Storm and Britt Baker were part of the movie and
so was Naomi from WWE. Mickie James was also part of the
cast.
The movie, which opened only in 825 theaters, ended up with
just $657,661 in domestic gross.
