AEW President Tony Khan recently appeared on the Tuesday Wrestling Tuesday podcast. The owner of All Elite discussed several topics during his time on the show, including why AEW is choosing to work with a number of different promotions.
“IMPACT, AAA, and certainly New Japan, I’ve done a lot of stuff with” Tony Khan began. “It has to make sense for AEW and we’ve seen wrestlers from AEW go and capture championships in different promotions around the world.
“A lot of AEW wrestlers still hold championships in various promotions around the world and it’s good for those promotions to have such strong recognizable champions who have a great TV platform to wear their titles and it’s good for us because it shows that we’re the top company in wrestling.
“A lot of companies out there have had our wrestlers come in and do really well. I’m very open to it and it shows good bonds between the companies and allows us access to good wrestlers” Tony Khan added. “We have one of the best rosters, but it’s always good to have fresh and different talent.
“It’s why I like working with other companies. Also, New Japan has had big shows and have great talent specifically. I’ve done a lot of things with them. The main focus is on AEW and our shows. We have such a big roster and so much bandwidth that it allows us to expand, partner, and help other wrestling companies” Tony Khan would conclude.
