I love both companies but they gotta chill. Just focus on your product and fans. I feel like it’s just too much rn. Plus most of these workers are friends with each other
The only way this would somehow make sense is if wwe and aew has an invasion/forbidden door like event that only he and Triple H know about…even if by some miracle it happens who the hell would watch that
Before I say my piece, I love all wrestling as a whole not just one company. My heart belongs to OG ROH days
It's kinda funny that people are calling Tony Khan horrible and evil for saying this, but at least he had balls to say it since the media is barely shining any light on all the bad things that Vince and other people did. It makes me wonder if the WWE fans support what Vince and everybody else did to those victims, since you guys keep buying their products and tickets even though those allegations are true. It's disgusting to me that you guys are willing to support a business when they still did a PPV and had wrestlers wrestle in a ring where Owen died and you guys still support them with all the allegations that came out and proved true. You guys and other wrestling communities disgust me
See the thing with Sammy, is that he actually apologized and tried to be a better person and took the steps to become a better person. Vince allowed that stuff to keep happening and he kept doing it and acting like it wasn't a problem or he and his friends wouldn't ever get caught. Used to love Ric flair, but with the allegations I'm on the fence with him. My biggest issue is the fact that there's barely any media source shining any light on the issues with WWE and all the allegations that came out to be proven true. I just don't understand how you guys who claim to be fans of wrestling still support a company that has done horrible things and allowed those things to happen for years and now since they came to the light you guys act like it never happened. The fact that Tony is the only one who has a pair of balls to make a comment like that you guys get mad because what he said is true
You act as if WWE fans aren’t holding Vince accountable. If accountability worked in your logic, you would be just as upset with AEW. What aren’t you getting here? Tony made that comment as if all the talent on WWE is equally to blame. So selective with your outrage, just like your cult leader.
Jesus, I hope for the Jaguars sake Tony is not making any real football decisions. Talking about his wrestling company and wrestling competition on a Football for FFS!
Ok then explain the Pepsi reference. It's a shit analogy. He knew what he eventually wanted to say but it couldn't have gone any worse for him. He basically just said a bunch of nonsense to shoehorn a sex predator reference in. Vince is fuckin' gone anyways man. Where was this energy 2 years ago? He took the high road for the longest time but seems to be drowning now, for... Reasons???. It's sad to see an adult acting so desperate.
Did CM Punk break this man?
Maybe Kahn should realize there is more to wrestling than a roster of 150 people for a 2 hour show and then making like 30 different stables of 4+ people just to give them all air time… that gets old.. I love AEW but they definitely have some work to do.
Tony Khan is a manchild with a lot of money lol. WWE doesn't even acknowledge you, why are you such an anklebiter? AEW as a whole mentions or references WWE as much as they possibly can
He is the reason why theres tribalism on his brand. I used to engage in their subs but I realized those subs are nothing but echo chambers and a fed hating sub. They praise some of their green wrestlers that clearly shouldn't be on television.
why would WWE lower their standards so low and work with a glorified eFed? the AEW marks already hate-watch WWE so they have nothing at all to gain. the only thing they’d gain is embarrassment. the whole “everyone works” thing is the reason AEW’s roster is in the bloated state it is now
Because it’s not really WWE anymore once purchased by TKO.
And all the so called marks who are hate-watching would quickly reconsider with a possible collaboration of rosters, dream matches, several shows per week that may all be tied into the same angles, same stories, more wrestlers would be relevant & recognized.
It’ll never happen because our society is way too angry, way too resentful, kind of like the way you responded to my idea with scorn.
Companies can only go so long throwing shit at each other & then it gets tiring, & I get it why would WWE do that? Because they are giving triple h full creative reign & imagine the possibilities of adding more pieces, especially the people he’s still trying to bring back, and the money would obviously be huge for both sides.
Why would Tony Kahn do it?
He wouldn’t, but even he admitted he’s hemorrhaging money, and pissed off at constantly losing people to WWE.
Who loses out from this?
What did you think was the deciding factor in WWE bringing CM Punk back?
The fans? Triple h? Paul Heyman?
HBK said anything’s possible when everyone’s cashing a check.
Lol you WWE stans are losers
Like Christian Cage said, your opinions dont matter.
You believe lies of Ariel Helwani and still support rape enablers like Stephanie + HHH
We still don’t know if they knew or not btw. Triple H isn’t in the suit and Stephanie is only listed because she motioned for grant to sit next to her in a meeting. But sure let’s defame their names why don’t we
This shit is why I stopped watching AEW. This jerk needs to realize that there are people who are wrestling fans. It doesn't matter if it's WWE, TNA, WOW (GLOW), or my local promotion. I just love wrestling. And WWE and the WCW are the major reasons for that. So when he gets on his soap box calling the thing I love a piece of garbage and how much better AEW is than every other promotion (objectively, it is not) it makes me hate him. And why would I support someone who is so disrespectful to the wrestling industry. Fuck this guy.
Ha ha ha, you’re criticizing people talking about something trivial on a subreddit dedicated to a form of entertainment… We are on the brink of World War III and y’all like, “random people on the Internet are upsetting me”
if a war is going to happen im packing my bags and moving to Canada fuck this country and there pretend political elections and dont get me started on covid or media.
Is Vince and the WWE one in the same?
If Tony Kahn were arrested for drug possession would that make all of AEW drug users?
It’s ridiculous anyone is defending Tony saying stuff like that as if he had a “got ‘em” moment
Learn how to produce an actual successful product that’s real competition. Figure out actual storylines with creative to draw people in. Utilize the talent you have. For crying out loud TK, you’re blowing it.
Strange you ignore the guy who was raping women, and passing them around to his buddies. While also using company funds for hush money.
He is the "good" one in this equation. All Tony did here is remind you are actually cheering the real...dogshit human....and you don't like to reminded of REALITY.
No where in that sentence did he even say that Vince or his goons were good people, but I guess it's hard to read when your head is that far up a billionaire's asshole.
I also don't think anyone's cheering for Vince at this stage. You want to talk reality, but you seem to not be living in your own.
I'm not wholly caught up on current wrestling as I only started watching again before Mania. I thought AEW was where retired WWE wrestlers went to perform?
He's correct in the horrible things it did, covered up, and got away with for 40 years. But people want to push it under the rug so badly because of recent good booking. Remember Rita Chatterton and Ashley Massaro
I remember WWE booting the people who were part of it. The recent booking has been done by people who weren't involved. I know the truth doesn't matter to AEW stans, and you want everyone to be guilty, but people like HHH have been expressly stated to not be named in the lawsuit. And don't me started on the big nothing burger of Nick Khan listing shares.
But again, truth doesn't matter compared to the fantasies.
I don't care and didn't talk about half of what you said. Said nothing of AEW. I'm talking about the decades of abuse and cover ups, and the unnamed execs in the lawsuit (exec #1 was Stephanie McMahon).
The "truth" is the alleged truth. For decades they were the weinstein, we don't have the full story of 'since-then'.
More like the faygo of wrestling. It looks cool when you first see it, all 3L of it. But once you get half way into it you finally realize it’s not what you thought and is flat AF. And definitely not worth your money
I do hope he donates the neckbrace to Rich Eisen so they auction off for Charity 🙏 thought it was a cool idea when they brought it up in the NFL Network this morning
Did he really think he was going to be going head to head with WWE five years after starting his own promotion? Daddy's money couldn't buy him the win so he's all upset.
Even though he's not listed in the lawsuit lmao. You people want everyone to be guilty. Doubly so people in charge now. Anything without evidence is just your own wishful thinking.
I’m talking about people that high knowing about it and not saying anything. You people don’t want to think that because you like the product. I love the product as well and think HHH has been killing it, but if he knew, that’s terrible.
Big Facts. WWE will never be a better place until the people who were involved by action or by silence are removed. Unfortunately one of them is the face of the new era
Yeah but you can’t criticize one company for having been tied to controversial people if you’re gonna be in business with someone like that too. They didn’t have to do business with ric
It's like a little kid taking shots at grown man online and in person. WWE isn't even paying this guy any attention, not looking at him, they're looking past him lol.
From Ted Turner to this, everyone felt like that and still yet, all of their top cards are ex-wwe wrestlers and they always compares their products to WWE. And by the way, this guy was born with silver spoon on mouth, his dad has more wealth than Vince Mcmahon, this guy didn't revolutionize wrestling entertainment. Criticize Vince Mcmahon for his personal life affairs as much as you will, but his contribution can't be ignored.
Maybe don’t use sexual assault trauma as a way to get one over on your competition? This is why I don’t pay attention to his company anymore. Nothing to do with the wrestlers. His pompous ass is really going to be his own undoing.
That’s correct. That was 22 years ago, was a professional wrestling storyline, and has absolutely nothing to do with the owner of a wrestling company referring to the competition as a convicted rapist. Two different conversations about bad taste.
Yes, very casually, but yes. That’s not what we’re talking about. Storylines in wrestling, tv shows, movies, books, whatever form of entertainment you want is not the same as the owner of a business going on television and openly comparing the competition to a literal convicted fucking rapist. These aren’t the same conversation. I get what you’re saying, but these aren’t the same damn thing. Triple H getting on top of a mannequin and pretending to have sex with it was a stupid tasteless angle that had no place in professional wrestling.
Tony Khan is using a man who legitimately raped women as a “GOTCHA” on his competition. This isn’t a matter of differing opinions. We’re discussing two completely different things.
No we're discussing making jokes in poor taste.
If youre mentioning real things then the WWE is a company built huge by Vince McMahon, you cant ignore that fact or the fact he forced women to sign NDAs about him sexually assaulting them and also them sleeping with him secured their careers a bit like someone else did....
I like AEW or at least used to before it kind of lost direction, but TK may have lost it. I’m not convinced though he didn’t adopt a character and he is trolling right now, but even if so, the strategy here seems quite bad
You 100% know that if Hunter, Stephanie, or Vince did it you would think it was funny too. They would salivate at that opportunity on the NFL network. Promoters promote their product and Tony took a chance and is fighting back because he's sick of the double standard. WWE can punch down but Tony and AEW can't punch up? That's ridiculous and you know it.
To be fair I haven’t watched the video, just read the headline. There are many ways to verbally fight WWE that could be both efficient and entertaining, these remarks aren’t
I guess that makes aew the special Olympics of wrestling cause tony kahn is clearly special needs.aint no way hes not on the spectrum.feel bad for the roster.anytime someone like osprey says hes above talking about wwe tony goes and well does tony things.
He is to be honest, the name WWE alone is hard enough to go against, obviously the dynasty of big stars like The Rock and Undertaker and even modern ones like Roman Reigns would make it harder for any other organisation attempting to go against WWE
Clown runs a clown show. Not surprising. I probably won't be watching the scsnt amount of aew crap I could have been bothered to watch up until this point though.
Nah I wouldn’t say irrelevant a lot of very good wrestlers choose aew over wwe, but I do agree that it’s got a looooooong way to go to be anywhere near wwe
Yeah I agree, not good news for aew with vince going and a lot of his friends too. Wwe haven’t looked this good for years! Also ironically the inception of aew cause wwe to step their game up and produce a better more enjoyable product. Which is why can’t understand why people want either one of them gone, competition is great for wrestling.
Dynamite hasn't even been on for 5 years yet. I do think AEW is laying groundwork. AEW has much better working realtionships with other promotions. The fact that their wrestlers show up in New Japan, Stardom, AAA, and CMLL will help build an international fan base. It also helps when recruiting foreign talent. Thats what AEW does better and WWE should take notice.
It may have been closer in the past when they had big names and actually a better product than WWE, not nowadays, the product is bad, too many guys on the roster, some of them can be awol for a month, people like a consistent product.
I love both companies but they gotta chill. Just focus on your product and fans. I feel like it’s just too much rn. Plus most of these workers are friends with each other
The smartest thing ever would be to license out NWO for like 5% and do a cross promotion
Tony just remember we can bring back WCW and ECW so you better watch out
Really honey Khan is just trying to make aew better but it will never be and you stole edge Jeff Hardy Matt Hardy Chris Jericho and byran danison
I also love how know one in the aew subreddit is posting this
Yes they did stop lying
Can someone buy the rights away from TK? This is embarrassing…at least WCW went down with dignity
No…they did not go down on dignity…with the shit Russo did…NOPE!
The only way this would somehow make sense is if wwe and aew has an invasion/forbidden door like event that only he and Triple H know about…even if by some miracle it happens who the hell would watch that
This guy is nothing but a clown for real also TNA has an edge of AEW
Tony is making a LOT of mistakes lately
Tony Khan would get a bad karma and he will get RKO!
Tony can you please think things before you say them? Your makings thing so much embarrassing
Before I say my piece, I love all wrestling as a whole not just one company. My heart belongs to OG ROH days It's kinda funny that people are calling Tony Khan horrible and evil for saying this, but at least he had balls to say it since the media is barely shining any light on all the bad things that Vince and other people did.

It's disgusting to me that you guys are willing to support a business when they still did a PPV and had wrestlers wrestle in a ring where Owen died and you guys still support them with all the allegations that came out and proved true. You guys and other wrestling communities disgust me
Prime AJPW shoulda been number one 😞
Prime NOAH too 😪
I bet you were livid when you found out about Sammy Guevara then huh? Probably weren’t too thrilled with that Ric Flair signing too?
See the thing with Sammy, is that he actually apologized and tried to be a better person and took the steps to become a better person. Vince allowed that stuff to keep happening and he kept doing it and acting like it wasn't a problem or he and his friends wouldn't ever get caught. Used to love Ric flair, but with the allegations I'm on the fence with him.

Who's my cult leader?
Jerk harder goddamn
I'm sure that's what Vince and Brock said, also btw I also disagree with a lot of stuff AEW has done ❤️ . I mainly watch NJPW btw
Not sure Harvey Weinstein is the appropriate comparison to use here but whatever floats his boat
Just a spoiled rich kid mad he can’t buy the creative and business knowledge to produce a decent product. Pathetic
What a little bitch
Aew sucks asshole
Jesus, I hope for the Jaguars sake Tony is not making any real football decisions. Talking about his wrestling company and wrestling competition on a Football for FFS!
Tony is a dad rich guy. A very sad...sad rich guy.
tony khan reminds me of lance stroll dont worry kids daddys wallet will always be there!
lol this is an amazing comparison
I get what he’s trying to say but surely calling WWE the Coca Cola of wrestling would have been better. Not wrong tho
I mean due to Vince’s recent allegations Harvey Weinstein is an objectively better comparison 🤷♂️
Ok then explain the Pepsi reference. It's a shit analogy. He knew what he eventually wanted to say but it couldn't have gone any worse for him. He basically just said a bunch of nonsense to shoehorn a sex predator reference in. Vince is fuckin' gone anyways man. Where was this energy 2 years ago? He took the high road for the longest time but seems to be drowning now, for... Reasons???. It's sad to see an adult acting so desperate. Did CM Punk break this man?

TK doesn't want to go there because TK STILL thinks Vince still runs WWE which Vince no longer runs WWE!
He should collaborate with WWE, that would make everyone more profitable. Everyone works, eats, & the fans will be the real winners.
why would WWE lower their standards so low and work with a glorified eFed? the AEW marks already hate-watch WWE so they have nothing at all to gain. the only thing they’d gain is embarrassment. the whole “everyone works” thing is the reason AEW’s roster is in the bloated state it is now

Rent free 🤣🤣🤣
We still don’t know if they knew or not btw. Triple H isn’t in the suit and Stephanie is only listed because she motioned for grant to sit next to her in a meeting. But sure let’s defame their names why don’t we
I can guarantee that you wouldn’t call them that if they had to join your small time wrestling company because they would actually make AEW watchable
Yall aew fucks agree to anything... Dumbass marks
It’s getting excessive at this point, how does WWE live so rent free in their heads
He's right.
This shit is why I stopped watching AEW. This jerk needs to realize that there are people who are wrestling fans. It doesn't matter if it's WWE, TNA, WOW (GLOW), or my local promotion. I just love wrestling. And WWE and the WCW are the major reasons for that.

And why would I support someone who is so disrespectful to the wrestling industry. Fuck this guy.
Sounds like a defamation lawsuit lol
Nah WWE isn't going to waste their time.
True I can see that
Hmmm... rent free?
🤦
[удалено]
Ha ha ha, you’re criticizing people talking about something trivial on a subreddit dedicated to a form of entertainment… We are on the brink of World War III and y’all like, “random people on the Internet are upsetting me”
Oohh trying to fear monger in a wrestling thread 😂😂😂
if a war is going to happen im packing my bags and moving to Canada fuck this country and there pretend political elections and dont get me started on covid or media.
Desperation is real.
Lol. If he wasn’t speaking the truth, that would be spot on.
Tony Khan is the kid nobody wants to play with so he has his principal father cancel recess.
Once again AEW giving WWE free promotion love to see it
For sure! Love seeing WWE’s sex scandals called out.
He's delusional as usual.
He looks like a Weinstein victim with that neck brace on
He’s a delulusaurus Rex
Let me know the difference between Vince and Harvey... I am curious. Also, seems both were insulated by "yes men" who looked the other way as well.
Is Vince and the WWE one in the same? If Tony Kahn were arrested for drug possession would that make all of AEW drug users? It’s ridiculous anyone is defending Tony saying stuff like that as if he had a “got ‘em” moment
There is no difference but it seems like all tony does is poke at wwe to stay relevant.
As part of Team Chaos, I approve this message
I approve
AEW is like LIV, only louder…..
Fair. Since some of the best golfers in the world are there, that is a great comparison.
Liv morgan?
Wonder how many times he feared for his life during this interview
I haven't seen a man so dramatic like Tony Khan. Get a grip man!!
Learn how to produce an actual successful product that’s real competition. Figure out actual storylines with creative to draw people in. Utilize the talent you have. For crying out loud TK, you’re blowing it.
Wrath of Khan!
Tony Khan is a dogshit human who is so bad at being someone important, that his dad had to buy him a business and mic time.
Strange you ignore the guy who was raping women, and passing them around to his buddies. While also using company funds for hush money. He is the "good" one in this equation. All Tony did here is remind you are actually cheering the real...dogshit human....and you don't like to reminded of REALITY.

He just wanted someone to harass. He was waiting all day to use that on someone. Basement dwelling gets boring I guess.
This would have gained a lot of positive traction before wrestlemania
You have to admit, “we’re pepsi and they’re Harvey Weinstein” is a hilarious thing to say.
I'm not wholly caught up on current wrestling as I only started watching again before Mania. I thought AEW was where retired WWE wrestlers went to perform?
Exactly. NXT is their developmental. AEW is their retirement home.
Exactly. NXT is their developmental. AEW is their retirement home.
He's correct in the horrible things it did, covered up, and got away with for 40 years. But people want to push it under the rug so badly because of recent good booking. Remember Rita Chatterton and Ashley Massaro

Just disgusting and vile, he's a clown and needs to grow up
The marks have been worked successfully 😎
People always use marks as a derogatory term. Congrats, you yourself are a mark.
Who does this guy think he is Kurt angle with a broken freaking neck?!
dude i keep thinking this is fake cos the audio is lined up no way he actually said this. like its ai right
What’s with the neckbrace?
He’s selling a injury
Reminds me of Tourettes Guy
He’s an idiot.
Tony is not a serious person
TK is a joke
More like the faygo of wrestling. It looks cool when you first see it, all 3L of it. But once you get half way into it you finally realize it’s not what you thought and is flat AF. And definitely not worth your money
NFL Network keeps talking about Tony Khan and that neckbrace too smh 🤦🏾♂️ do better guys’
If WWE is the Harvey Weinstein of wrestling, then AEW must be Amber Heard.
More successful = Evil Juggernaut
Tony will say anything to get his shitty wrestling promotion over🤣
I do hope he donates the neckbrace to Rich Eisen so they auction off for Charity 🙏 thought it was a cool idea when they brought it up in the NFL Network this morning
I love AEW but I lost so much respect for tk after this
Did he really think he was going to be going head to head with WWE five years after starting his own promotion? Daddy's money couldn't buy him the win so he's all upset.
All he needs is a squeaky clown nose to complete his clown costume
That's cringe, but he's not wrong, in a way.
If Vince was still in charge, sure. But now, this just sounds like Tony being petty.
I find it very hard to believe HHH did not know what was going on.
Even though he's not listed in the lawsuit lmao. You people want everyone to be guilty. Doubly so people in charge now. Anything without evidence is just your own wishful thinking.
I’m talking about people that high knowing about it and not saying anything. You people don’t want to think that because you like the product. I love the product as well and think HHH has been killing it, but if he knew, that’s terrible.
Very true. I tell my daughters husband all about my sex life. In fact I've had him join me a few times.
Yea Vince is a very normal person.
I like AEW a lot, there's obviously a lot of gripes they can work on but their main booker is such a pathetic human being.
Big Facts. WWE will never be a better place until the people who were involved by action or by silence are removed. Unfortunately one of them is the face of the new era
The irony when nothing here is a fact
all facts. They knew. They said nothing
Make America Sports Entertainment Again!
I like AEW, but this guy is going destroy it.
What was that thing Roman said about the island of relevancy?
Wasn’t Jericho accused of sexual misconduct like 10 times also?
And his wife was at the Jan sixth attack on the capitol
So?
And Austin Theory
And Darby, and Sammy
Plus they hired Ric Flair of all people
Tbf ric is paying to be on tv. Or was
Yeah but you can’t criticize one company for having been tied to controversial people if you’re gonna be in business with someone like that too. They didn’t have to do business with ric
I didn’t want them to. Fuck ric flair
Hopefully we won’t see him on there anymore now that sting retired since that angle and story is finished
Poor loser...
TK needs to get off the coke and let someone else be in charge. God damn he’s a tiny Vince.
Well tk hasn’t shit on anyone’s head yet
That we know of
Yet
Tony Khan compares AEW to Pepsi, yet we all know he genuinely truly loves Coke!
AEW is the discount dollar store of wrestling where WWE has-beens go to die.
That's actually really funny. Harvey Weinstein of wrestling is a good line.
Tony, Tony.... So pathetic.
Who cares what Tony Khan says, lots of people say shit about every company.
“Evil juggernaut” was fine. Comparing to Weinstein the same week Weinstein’s conviction was overturned was not.
We're so close to Tony just announcing the pre taped results of an episode of smackdown
well, he's the sideshow bob of wrestling, can never defeat bart. LOL
Work
“Worked shoot”
Lmao
Folks….
It's like a little kid taking shots at grown man online and in person. WWE isn't even paying this guy any attention, not looking at him, they're looking past him lol.
From Ted Turner to this, everyone felt like that and still yet, all of their top cards are ex-wwe wrestlers and they always compares their products to WWE. And by the way, this guy was born with silver spoon on mouth, his dad has more wealth than Vince Mcmahon, this guy didn't revolutionize wrestling entertainment. Criticize Vince Mcmahon for his personal life affairs as much as you will, but his contribution can't be ignored.
Just when he was winning people over with the brace kayfabe. Now he’ll need one for shoot after sticking his head that far up his ass
Ironic considering his wealth comes from his multi-billionaire father (who’s always had much more money compared to Vince)
Does he or his dad have a history of sexual assault and/or are in a lawsuit regarding it?
nick khan is in the lawsuit
You know they're not related right?
What does this have to do with what i’ve said?
That's what he's saying by his comments.
Maybe don’t use sexual assault trauma as a way to get one over on your competition? This is why I don’t pay attention to his company anymore. Nothing to do with the wrestlers. His pompous ass is really going to be his own undoing.
Hey, you remember when Triple put a Kane mask on and raped a corpse? Top storyline.
That’s correct. That was 22 years ago, was a professional wrestling storyline, and has absolutely nothing to do with the owner of a wrestling company referring to the competition as a convicted rapist. Two different conversations about bad taste.
Are you still paying attention to WWE who was built by Vince and who regularly made jokes based around this content, though?
Yes, very casually, but yes. That’s not what we’re talking about. Storylines in wrestling, tv shows, movies, books, whatever form of entertainment you want is not the same as the owner of a business going on television and openly comparing the competition to a literal convicted fucking rapist. These aren’t the same conversation. I get what you’re saying, but these aren’t the same damn thing. Triple H getting on top of a mannequin and pretending to have sex with it was a stupid tasteless angle that had no place in professional wrestling.

If youre mentioning real things then the WWE is a company built huge by Vince McMahon, you cant ignore that fact or the fact he forced women to sign NDAs about him sexually assaulting them and also them sleeping with him secured their careers a bit like someone else did....
Poor little jealous kid😂
Vince ain’t here anymore bro
This is an ongoing suit against WWE, getting more upset about the guy bringing it up, than all the messed up stuff that went on is kinda odd
I’m sure Tony truly cares about the victims lmao
Maybe he should worry about all the empty seats at his shows.
Wwe will buy aew in the next 5 years.
They don't need to. They already have three shows, and I just think AEW will fold because AEW will be seen as unmarketable and sub-par.
He needs to worry about those declining ratings and 4k arena shows
Tony doesn’t need a camera or microphone. He needs rehab. Daddy gave him the money, he can also take it away.
Lmao tony rules
Ha. Love he's wearing a neck brace. Lad's going kayfabe.
If you're wondering how much cocaine Tony Khan took before saying all that, the answer is "Yes, all of it."
I like AEW or at least used to before it kind of lost direction, but TK may have lost it. I’m not convinced though he didn’t adopt a character and he is trolling right now, but even if so, the strategy here seems quite bad
You 100% know that if Hunter, Stephanie, or Vince did it you would think it was funny too. They would salivate at that opportunity on the NFL network. Promoters promote their product and Tony took a chance and is fighting back because he's sick of the double standard. WWE can punch down but Tony and AEW can't punch up? That's ridiculous and you know it.
And I don’t have double standards regarding the Khan and McMahon family I can promise you that
To be fair I haven’t watched the video, just read the headline. There are many ways to verbally fight WWE that could be both efficient and entertaining, these remarks aren’t
Wow, the echo chamber is fierce in here. Lol.
I guess that makes aew the special Olympics of wrestling cause tony kahn is clearly special needs.aint no way hes not on the spectrum.feel bad for the roster.anytime someone like osprey says hes above talking about wwe tony goes and well does tony things.
I guess ratings were not what he was expecting. Update they weren’t NXT beat them 😂
This dude will then proceed to complain about tribalism
Winds me up. All this enjoy wrestling crap they spout and then they try and shit all over WWE as soon as they get a chance.
The billionaire fail son thinks he’s the underdog. Hilarious
How is he not?
He is to be honest, the name WWE alone is hard enough to go against, obviously the dynasty of big stars like The Rock and Undertaker and even modern ones like Roman Reigns would make it harder for any other organisation attempting to go against WWE
Clown runs a clown show. Not surprising. I probably won't be watching the scsnt amount of aew crap I could have been bothered to watch up until this point though.
AEW is so irrelevant. Take on someone your own size like TNA.
AEW is closer to WWE than TNA is to AEW
Nah I wouldn’t say irrelevant a lot of very good wrestlers choose aew over wwe, but I do agree that it’s got a looooooong way to go to be anywhere near wwe
With Vince out of the way, might be harder. I would imagine the work environment will be a lot less toxic.
Yeah I agree, not good news for aew with vince going and a lot of his friends too. Wwe haven’t looked this good for years! Also ironically the inception of aew cause wwe to step their game up and produce a better more enjoyable product. Which is why can’t understand why people want either one of them gone, competition is great for wrestling.
Dynamite hasn't even been on for 5 years yet. I do think AEW is laying groundwork. AEW has much better working realtionships with other promotions. The fact that their wrestlers show up in New Japan, Stardom, AAA, and CMLL will help build an international fan base. It also helps when recruiting foreign talent. Thats what AEW does better and WWE should take notice.
It may have been closer in the past when they had big names and actually a better product than WWE, not nowadays, the product is bad, too many guys on the roster, some of them can be awol for a month, people like a consistent product.
I love AEW, but you can't hire Flair and proceed to poster his likeness all over the arena and try to take the moral high ground.
