Khan said the following as it related to a recent Bloomberg story on AEW: And it made me want to work that much harder to make AEW stronger and that ended up being the biggest year for growth we’ve ever had.” So, following up on that, if that’s the case, I know they’re out there to get me, I know they’re out there to hurt AEW’s relationships with our business partners, if that’s the case, allegedly. And they told me, ‘No, we don’t trust them, we want to work with you and we want to stay with you.’ And ever since, our relationship has been incredibly positive.Īgain, I don’t know if that’s true or not, I only know what my business partner alleged to me and what I read on the internet and they were both the same thing. It was the first of many of those such matches.

I called the New Japan executives and said, ‘Is this true? Did WWE call you and try to get you to turn on me? And they said, ‘Yeah.’ And I said, ‘Okay, well, are we still doing the stuff we had planned?’ Because at the time we had a match set up for Wednesday Night Dynamite where there was going to be a New Japan title match in AEW. And I was really just getting started with New Japan, we’d only been working together a short time and that also had been, frankly, a tumultuous relationship but it was getting pretty good and to this day it is an amazing partnership.

I think wrestling fans, at the end of the day, appreciate that a lot of what happens in wrestling shows is sometimes story and that’s why people like watching the shows, they like the stories and the exciting matches and especially the combination of the two when the stories lead to exciting matches and vice versa. Frankly, I don’t think it’s stopped us because the quality of the product and the quality of the shows is at an all-time high right now….the wrestling war between WWE and AEW leads to exciting television. I’ve had to go out and try to put on good shows despite this alleged tampering and stuff like that. I can only tell you what the wrestlers have come to me and said but I’ve had multiple wrestlers and staff report that to me.

“ I’ve had a lot of wrestlers come to me and allege that WWE reached out to them to tamper with their contracts and ask them to break their contracts. WWE Executives allegedly tampering with AEW contracted talent and WWE seeking an exclusive partnership with NJPW in 2021 was brought up. During a recent appearance on most recent episode of The Dan Le Batard Show, AEW CEO and President Tony Khan said AEW and WWE “truly hate each other.” He also further said that WWE and AEW are in a “wrestling war.”
