AWE (formerly Wealth TV) is a United States-based lifestyle and entertainment cable network privately held by Herring Networks, Inc. The network operates several domestic and international television feeds. The network's primary production facilities and corporate headquarters are located in San Diego, California. It is featured on numerous providers including DirecTV,Verizon FiOS, and AT&T.
Since its inception in 2004, the network has produced an extensive amount of its signature programming lineup in house and has received numerous regional Emmys for its production efforts. Its in-house production facilities include two studios, 14 HD editing bays and a master control operations facility with satellite uplink and downlink capabilities.
AWE network operates a 24/7 channel domestically as well as an international feed with alternate programming in which it owns the worldwide rights. The network also offers its 24/7 feeds and programs on demand through multiple digital media playing devices. AWE is carried domestically on approximately 150 cable systems and telco video providers. Its international feeds are broadcast throughout the Caribbean and the Middle East.
AWE airs a wide range of lifestyle and entertainment programming, including a significant amount of original content.
In 2011, WealthTV began airing live professional boxing branded under "Wealth TV's Fight Night". In July 2012, the network aired its first live pay-per-view (PPV) event branded "Wealth TV PPV". Wealth TV received multiple recognitions for its boxing efforts in 2012. The Boxing Writers Association of America, BWAA, recognized six fights for 2012 as nominees for best fight of the year, two of which were aired live on Wealth TV. David Price, a heavyweight boxer featured exclusively in the US on Wealth TV in 2012, was recognized by leading boxing authority Dan Rafael of ESPN as the top Prospect of the Year.
In the past, AWE has brought boxing fans some of the most exciting and controversial bouts including the matchup of Ricky Burns against Ray Beltran for the world lightweight title (2013); the crowning of American, Terence Crawford, after his defeat of Ricky Burns (2014); and several bouts demonstrating the explosive power of undefeated heavyweight Tyson Fury. In 2017, AWE was the exclusive provider for the historic matchup between legendary British heavyweights David Haye and Tony Bellew.
Instead of relying on its own stable of fighters or a single promoter, the network has been involved with a handful of promoters to air live, world-class, boxing events. The network has worked with a number of promoters worldwide including Don King (Don King Promotions), Kathy Duva (Main Events), Mick Hennessy (Hennessy Sports), Yvon Michel (Groupe Yvon Michel) and Barry Hearn (Matchroom Sports), to delivery over 20 live events. The network has been accelerating the number of live boxing matches and for some events provides complete television production utilizing its staff and live production equipment.
