During a recent appearance on “The Rocker Morning Show,” AEW President Tony Khan was questioned about making critical remarks about WWE and other organizations during interviews and on social media platforms.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On other companies taking shots at each other: “In the 90s, certainly, I do think a lot of that helped fuel the wresting economy, but it was a very different time and things weren’t all online. Everybody wasn’t online all the time. It was a very different time for wrestling and a different time to be a sports fan. It’s changed for sports.”
On rivalries and debates being healthy: “Those rivalries and debates in sports are healthy. I think for wrestling, too, it’s a big part, for better or worse of wrestling fandom now. It’s definitely a way that people keep up on the shows and watch the shows. For me, I’m a big fan of that. I love promoting the shows online. I know that our wrestlers are really engaged socially. It makes for healthy competition, I think.”
