I really wanted AEW to succeed. But this is not the same company I enjoyed in 2019, and it’s definitely not the product I absolutely loved in late 2021, early 2022. All Out 2021 was one of my favorite wrestling PPVs ever. That was only two and a half years ago but it feels like a lifetime has passed when you consider how much they’ve declined. In the past when they made a bad booking decision or did something silly, I always thought “well it’s not the end of the world, they’ll bounce back from this”, but Wednesday night when Tony Khan decided to air this footage for god knows what reason, for the first time I felt like AEW is a sinking ship. WWE is coming off one of the greatest Wrestlemanias ever, and meanwhile, just three short days later, AEW completely embarrasses themselves.

Bucks didn't wanna do that shit but then went on Twitter & said "EVPetty?" Lmaoooooooo foh 😂😂😂

[@508ctk]

​@Terri234 fucking ridiculous bro

[@24magiccarrot]

In one night AEW have effectively shut the door on Chicago as a city to host events, either nobody will show or they will spend the entire night promoting the name of someone from a rival company.

[@Thathorrorguy12FU]

Bully Ray will end up in jail for killing one of these guys. Lol. If that was BR it would have been much worse.

[@dillsnufus]

If they’re willing to release this when is Brawl Out gonna be released ?

[@thedoobieshrew0244]

It will make the company and elite look bad plus legal reasons probably. They don't want it to be released because it's not what everyone was told or believe what truly happened.

[@roozoo]

Vinnie Mac knew how to get the boys in line. Much of TK’s woes come from him not being able to do so.

[@carlosbermudez1459]

That's because he was a MEGALO-MANIACAL 'TYRANT'!! Nobody wants that. It isn't 'good' for business, either.

[@Hunkzilla]

Take a good look at Tony. He has "privileged upbringing" written all over him . The guy was frightened by two guys shoving and grabbing each other for pete's sake. 😂

[@clarity2115]

Tony Khan needs to be replaced to save any reputation of AEW.

Imagine if Revolution 2024 could have had Sting's Last Match and a rematch of CMFTR vs The Elite after an explosive months-long feud between Punk & FTR and Omega & The Bucks

Your so wrong in so many ways.. it was just a play out of the Vinny Mac playbook leading into a heavy Bucks, Perry push... com'on bruh

[@thehpn1097]

Could see regal making that comment

[@zigga967]

SRS is a SHILL for AEW, the likes of which I never saw. The dude snapped at me for calling Khan a wimp for saying he feared for his life, lol. I get it-the man has made a crazy living and got great connections, but when he was legit the only person live last night DEFENDING AEW, my mind was blown!

[@Coldinwis]

Tony’s idea of life threatening danger apparently is not the same life threatening danger the rest of us face. Tony better stay away from all elementary school playgrounds, Walmarts and public transit areas, them 5 yr olds will be the death of him lol. Any boss that has his employees staple each other, throw each other through furniture, barb wire & glass on top of all the wrestling bumps YET is scared for his own life when employees come at him & yell, has no business being anywhere near wrestling.

[@vb2806]

​@@CHUCKECHEESERANCHno they would have just fired him without saying anything but best of luck

[@fedricojgarza464]

If i was Tony Khan wood take few month vacation

[@ReginaldRobinson-r7f]

Tony Khan has managed to make Vince Russo look like a genius when it comes to booking. The show would’ve been much better off without that footage or Will Osprey’s segment.

[@MrTony-sb6nq]

Can we just have some good wrestling now and move forward now that the dumbshit is over.

[@Thathorrorguy12FU]

Nice pic of "THE DON" in the back! Who painted that? Love it!

[@jokerinthebronx]

Tony Khan is just Dixie Carter with testicles.

[@kieranhardy581]

Although I reckon dixie would win that fight.

[@vb2806]

Lol I don't think Tony has cojones

[@andrewdutler9249]

As they should be!!! Tony K. had every opportunity to pull-back from even doing this. Literally EVERY wrestling outlet known to mankind (the people - not the wrestler 😀) were saying how terrible of an idea this was and (quite accurately) predicted how gigantic the wave of negative feedback would be, but he stubbornly (and stupidly) went ahead with it anyway. AEW is having a hard enough time as it is without these additional self inflicted wounds that will only further lower morale.

[@joeford5181]

Paul: Hey Phil here's your early Christmas bonus.

[@TheNightTyrant]

That HHH line is disrespectful. HHH was the one who opened thr Forbidden door when Jushin thunder liger showed up in NXT and when Cruiserweight Classic took place and Womens own ppv. Guys like Osprey in Riochet, Andrade, Balor all these were integral part of NXT and now Osprey is making HHH look like a villain.

Who would have thought that a Guy that rants on Twitter like an actual troll would make stupid decisions like this... Man poor Edge 2 weeks after he was sent there and played the company's guy this happens, now he just looks like a clown.

[@armryl]

I feel bad for the talent in AEW. A lot of solid wrestlers there but the company is a joke.

[@benespinosa6725]

LMAO I don't know why tony khan even aired the footage in the first place all because someone else who's working for the competition said the truth the footage was embarrassing when the fans are chanting CM punk you know there's a fucking problem maybe punk was right that tony khan is a clown I was watching the footage as it aired and i was laughing my ass off tony Schiavone's reaction afterwards that was the icing on the cake AEW is struggling while WWE is on fire AEW trying to make CM punk look bad massively backfired it goes to show you that CM punk is still their biggest draw months after getting fired AEW is a clownshow tony khan has no balls the Will Osprey promo sucked Renee's reaction was priceless especially since she has friends there what a fucking embarrassment that was last night.

[@carlosbermudez1459]

Punk told NO truth. Just HIS side of things. Meaning-- 'half' the truth. As with anyone else. U know what they say about the TRUTH and the 'middle'...

I like how this guy talk's. I don't agree with every single thing he said but I do agree with most of it. Thank you for saying it how it is, finally someone with the balls to do it.

[@d3ath8ybac0n4]

When this was even whispered about anyone with half a brain cell know this would be a shitshow of epic proportions. Tony buried himself.

Finally found you Wrestling soup posted your video man thanks to them you have a new sub !!! ❤

People relax. Tony Khan and his All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and Ring of Honor (ROH) will be ok. This situation is NOT 1999-2000 World Champion Wrestling (WCW). It may be 1992-1993 WCW, but definitely not 1999-2000 WCW. In all fairness, effective immediately, Khan needs to establish an Executive Booking & Creative Committee of AEW Excutives, consisting of: Jeff Jarrett (current AEW Director of Business Development), recently in-ring retired Steve "Sting" Borden, Hall of Famer Ricky Steamboat, Shane Douglas, Greg Gagne, Scott D'Amore, Hall of Famer Stevie Ray and former Women's World Champions Madusa Miceli and Jazz.

[@tommywright2157]

I love AEW and this was a disastrous decision. I felt embarrassed for them after watching it. I have to believe that the majority of the backstage talent are super bummed and maybe pissed.
