Trillers financial drama has been making headlines for months, but according to GCWs Brett Lauderdale, the streaming giant is still holding up its end of the bargainat least for now.
During a new interview with The Business of the Business podcast, Lauderdale gave an update on GCWs relationship with Triller and addressed whether the promotion is actually getting paid.
Triller has been under scrutiny ever since Wrestlenomics reported that the company has repeatedly failed to file its financial reports on time. On top of that, Trillers stock is barely hanging on, trading at just $0.76.
Violence X Suffering promoter Isaac Rodriguez stirred the pot back in July 2024 by publicly accusing Triller of being months late with payments. Rodriguez claimed hed spoken to multiple promoters dealing with the same issue, fueling speculation that Trillers money problems were trickling down to the indie scene.
But Lauderdale insists GCW isnt part of that messat least when it comes to getting paid. He described the day-to-day operations with Triller as seamless and emphasized that fans havent noticed a thing.
Lauderdale was then asked the blunt questionhas Triller kept up with payments to GCW? He didnt give a direct yes or no, but the message was clear: for now, the moneys coming in and the relationship is stable, even if theres some turbulence behind the scenes.
The bigger question is how long that lasts, especially with Trillers financial situation looking rough on paper.
Do you think Triller can keep GCWand other promotionspaid, or is this relationship a ticking time bomb? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
