Aug 25, 2022
Despite the recent return of Kenny Omega, and the upcoming All Out PPV on September 3, all recent talk of AEW has focused on the reportedly chaotic backstage environment, especially in the wake of the CM Punk/Hangman Page comments from the August 17 Dynamite.
AEW implemented several changes to their backstage structure in early August, and ahead of the August 24 edition of Dynamite, AEW President Tony Khan led a talent meeting backstage.
Khan was reportedly very animated during the meeting, and broke down the new structures in place on the management side of things, particularly with regards to talent relations.
As well as Khan, Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks, Tony Schiavone, and Chris Jericho are also believed to have spoken during the meeting. Omega and the Jacksons reiterated that their ‘doors are always open’ and they can always be reached if any concerns arise.
As part of the management shake up in AEW, Tony Schiavone, Sonjay Dutt, QT Marshall, and Pat Buck were promoted to help ease the lines of communication between talent and Khan, with access to Khan and communication within the company reportedly a source of frustration for some talents in recent months.
