Tony Khan Cuts Through AEW Backstage Rumors and Spoilers

[@Talkin_MMA]

I think that cup comes attached to Tony’s body.

[@mista_ke]

Should come with the Tony Khan Action Figure.

Probably fidgets a lot with his hands while sitting so holding something like a cup might ease that anxiety.

First off I’ve loved Panama Red since before I ever even had kind 😂 2nd, are you talking about the Dynamite song? It’s pretty hilarious if you’ve ever heard the whole thing. “Actin like it’s Friday but it’s really Wednesday BOOM” 🤣🤣🤣

[@celestialgoddessgaming]

I'm happy that Rasslin' is back!! I really enjoy this show so so much & Brandon is the perfect host. Always has me laughing so hard that I cry 😂😂

[@Yeahitsme101]

There's no "competition"

[@Chronoic]

Yup, the Monday night wars was what made Wrestling so great. Need those days again, without those days, we get part time Roman holding both champions and only showing up on smackdown, and no one sees the issue with that it seems, but its so bad, I stop watching RAW all together.

[@ikeyschultz4969]

There is no war right now. AEW Dynamite won’t even run against WWE Monday Raw because they know they will get killed. And take that from someone who hates the WWE product and wants to see it crushed.

[@hellboy30098]

It is incredible how much people want to hate this man when his passion for the business has been absolutely incredible. I don't get it. I've never gotten it

[@omegamark9178]

Let's be clear: tony khan seems like a genuinely good guy and DOES have a great love and passion for the business. That is not disputed. HOWEVER,there are two major problems: in one way he books it like a video game:barely any story at all, angles and groups just start/stop/disappear at random, wrestlers start getting over/heat then disappear, And jobber level guys get put in main events(wheeler yuta especially), Not to mention every match has to last 10 minutes minimum,,, The other thing is weak leadership:Too many wrestlers are allowed to go into business/do thiet own angles that creates a disjointed product and ruins cohesion(jericho and the elite being the worst offenders)

[@grantmoreland2472]

No one hates him, he needs to step back and learn the business. Everyone wants it to be better than WWE, everyone.

[@Live21Forever]

34:26 It's like Christmas all over again. He's very excited. "Can I come"

[@bmagada]

Man I love Tony. For any criticisms or crap anyone says you cannot deny the guy's enthusiasm for what he's putting out. I'm just hoping for another forbidden door and hopefully this time everyone is healthy and we can get a Golden Lovers reunion. Wouldn't be a dry eye in the house.

The best episode of The Office is "Dinner Party" from season four, hands down.

[@utkarshvivek8083]

He needs to have cm punk and elite work it out. Not fire anyone. And make it into a storyline

[@NickRaymond871]

Never happening.

[@hudstad]

Not gonna happen punk should be fired

[@Nick-7]

Punk is also gone for about 9 months before even making an in ring return. His injuries are piling up.

[@johnbeal6114]

They're not fired they are suspended and punk is injured he's not coming back to next year they go work things out knowing Tony he going to find a way to have everyone work out their difference this could be a pretty good storyline like this controversy creates cash

[@blade5883]

That's what will happen CM Punk vs the Elite

[@forgottenmma3694]

Annual Grand Slam Promotional tour are my favorites

[@IceIceShady]

Talking about the office definitely makes me love these two more, no homo

[@BuiltbyF]

Say what you like about AEW but I respect the approach to kayfabe/press etc. So funny

[@imdifferentchet]

Tony comes off, so much better here, than he ever does on TV... I'm only assuming, it's because, Hes SO hyped up on Show days....

[@MideonProductions]

One of the best YT Wrestling Shows!

[@abrahamramirez8536]

At 20 minutes 57 seconds when Brandon forgets cool hand Ange name. Tony Khan kicked him from underneath the table because the camera moved. Tell me I'm lying 😆😆😆

[@alanbonesjones1847]

yeah like how does he have all the notes but not the fucking wrestlers name when he’s with the promoter don’t hate him but that’s a rookie move and mistake

[@sakib_sukib]

Tony khan is one of the most genuine good hearted people in the wrestling business. God bless him.

[@krystynfunk4201]

I haven't been this stoked for an episode of dynamite for a few months now. Seems like they are doing really good since the PPV, and shows that maybe aew doesn't need the elite or punk.

[@johnbeal6114]

The ratings will tell you that four straight weeks still remain over 1 million is fantastic and people want to crap on them and praise Triple H and as I recall Monday night Raw did 1.5 million viewership and ranked number five they got destroyed by Monday night football what do people expect it's not going to do well against Monday night football and that main event was Alexa Bliss vs Bayley you know that nobody's not going to tune in for that at that last match was not that great I'm happy for aew for still stay on top and I hope to continue to do well I need to go bounce back from the drama I never lose faith in them

[@manwithoutmercy]

Definitely want the Elite back though

[@willdemore4418]

They would help. I hope cm punk returns after mjf contract epires, he ruturns to call out mjf who will become babyface, and face "face" punk. Punk when he loses could fueld with omega and that would be fun to watch

[@icantbelieveitsnotbutter8851]

Def don't need The Elite, they helped supremely in the early days but AEW have evolved beyond them...even Kenny. CM Punk...never cared for him but he have a huge following that pulls in ratings.

[@armandocontreras7262]

I think they’re better without them. The elite should go to wwe, and cm punk should probably retire

[@jematrixreloaded2591]

Except for the other wrestling promotion that beats them in the ratings, buyrates, sells more merchandise, sells more tickets, has a bigger fan base, has the best stories, has the best everything. At least Triple H doesn’t have to go to some random KZbinr to beg fans to come to his show tonight because he can’t even sell out the stadium with the stacked card that he has tonight.
