TK saw how having all the PLEs free and easy to access on Peacock has contributed to WWE being possibly the most popular it’s ever been and decided to do a completely half-assed version of that deal. (Not that it really matters when the dude keeps booking all the big matches on random episodes of Dynamite.)
I’m guessing Shawn wants to get the belt off of Roxanne without her actually taking the pin a la Trick so this is probably leading to a Fatal Four-way with Vaquer/Giulia/Roxanne/Cora (who is entirely out of her depth in this scenario but is pretty much there to take the L for the three people that HHH actually wants to push) or something. Then Roxanne gets to ride off into the sunset (a completely unnecessary feud with Sonya Deville on the main roster or something of that nature)/turn face again when Cora inevitably stabs her in the back again.
Then they can just sorta have Giulia, Vaquer, and Delta continually trade off the belt while every single other female wrestler in the brand improves enough to get on their level.

There was a lot of talk that WWE has wanted to get some money back on at least the big 4 PLEs but so far they've stuck to the WWE Network -> Peacock deal. (to be honest I'm still stunned that the WWE Network as bad as it was was still easier to navigate/find content than Peacock).
This really seems wrongheaded for AEW though. Their house and tv show attendance is in the toilet and I have to imagine a lot more people are watching their PPVs than actually paying to do so. I wonder if WBD doesn't see value in writing off the cost of the PPVs being free to subscribers? For that matter Max is an awful service as is.

While, generally speaking, I am a fan of the product as it is currently constructed, although I can clearly see where it lacks compared to the WWE, one of the MAJOR, and I mean MAJOR, beefs I have with AEW is Tony Khan's desire to advertise, and make, a "major announcement" what seems like every month (or every two months). Dude needs to ease up on whatever it is that he is drinking (or smoking) that makes him think he needs to make so many announcements.
amazing how the “Good at being a professional wrestler” gene skipped literally every single other member of the current generation of the Fatu family (only half excluding Jey) aside from Jacob, who is so good that he’d probably still be main event Bad Blood even if he wasn’t in the Bloodline based on sheer talent alone.
