Michael Johnson has countered Noah Lyles' claims with major broadcast deals.
There is no doubt that Noah Lyles has been one of the greatest critics of Michael Johnson’s Grand Slam Track League.
The triple-world champion explained that the main reason why he has yet to sign with the lucrative league is due to the lack of a broadcast partner and the scheduling of the event.
Noah Lyles shared that he would not be willing to compete if there was no one to watch him race. He first shared his doubts in an interview with Letsrun.com before also speaking about the league on ESPN and lately on the Beyond the Records podcast.

10 Best paid Africa national team coaches: Where does Kenya’s Benni McCarthy rank?
Harambee Stars coach Benni McCarthy has joined the list of highest paid Africa national team coaches but he still does not compare to many others on the continent.
“Being the Olympic champion, I’ve already come in with a lot of accolades and a lot of things where I don’t need monetary value,” Noah Lyles shared in a past interview with Letsrun.com.
“I’d really need marketing value and if a tree falls in the woods, did it fall or did it make a sound? So, if I race and it’s not seen, where’s the marketing for it.”
However, Michael Johnson and his team have made a lot of progress in securing broadcast rights. Earlier this year, Grand Slam Track announced that CW Network would be the exclusive US broadcast home of the league and that Peacock would be the exclusive streaming home.

FIFA rankings: Harambee Starlets biggest climbers in the world thanks to win over Tunisia
Harambee Starlets have moved up seven places in the latest FIFA rankings thanks to their impressive results against Tunisia in the WAFCON qualifiers.
The track league also recently announced a new partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery. TNT Sports will broadcast the events for viewers from the UK and Ireland, while Eurosport will provide the coverage for viewers in Europe and Asia.
Following the major progress made, Michael Johnson has aimed a subtle dig at Noah Lyles, posting a tweet on his X handle.
“Peacock, The CW, NBC, Eurosport, TNT. I’m a damn lumberjack! I cut down all the trees in the woods and everybody heard them fall. Well almost everybody,” Michael Johnson said.
