Tony Khan 'Really Excited' About AEW Right Now
AEW’s Tony Khan is ‘really excited’ about the company right now
Jan 24, 2024
All Elite Wrestling has seemingly started 2024 with a spring in its step following what many have called a below-par 2023.
The return of the ranking system, and Revolution in March close to being sold out in advance has led fans to claim ‘the feeling’ is back in AEW, and AEW President Tony Khan certainly seems to agree, with Dave Meltzer reporting the following on Wrestling Observer Radio:
"[Tony] is really excited right now. I think the fact that you know there's a good chance he's going to get Okada, you know there's certainly a good chance he's going to get Mercedes. He's got Will Ospreay. I don't know where Tama Tonga is going but you know, Kenny Omega will be back at some point. Bryan Danielson, Adam Page, these guys. PAC is coming back. From a health standpoint, Adam Cole's still a couple months away.
“It's like he could probably look and go like when we get to Wembley, this is going to be talent-wise by far the strongest roster we will ever have. Plus all these upcoming guys with your Takeshita's, Hobbs, Daniel Garcia's they're pushing. Bringing back the rankings tell me that it's another sign that he's very excited right now,” said Meltzer.
AEW’s ticket sales for weekly TV are still a point of concern, but the television product has notably improved in recent weeks in the eyes of many fans.
