Tony Khan says someone else will have to avenge what the Young Bucks and Jack Perry did to him.
The Young Bucks and Jack Perry took AEW CEO Tony Khan out with an attack on the April 24 episode of AEW Dynamite. AEW announced that Khan was not cleared to travel, so he has been running AEW remotely.
Speaking with Tony Pike and Rick Ucchino on Cincy 360, Tony Khan was asked about potentially training for a match so he could get revenge on The Elite.
“Well, AEW is where the best wrestle, and we mean that,” Tony Khan said. “That’s why I want to make sure that the fans get the best matches, the best action. In this case, I’m not the best person to pay those people back. I think there are a lot of things I’m good at behind the scenes. But somebody else is gonna have to go avenge what those guys did.
“Not only to me, but to Kenny Omega. Kenny Omega actually has a big announcement tomorrow night on the show that’ll be important. I think that will be of great interest to The Elite. I’m quite sure there are more capable wrestlers than I am that can inflict some of that punishment on The Elite.”
Khan then reiterated that having a match was possible, but he wanted to have great matches in AEW.
“[Laughs] Well, it’s possible, but I want to have great matches in AEW. After what happened to me last time, I don’t think I would be making a smart move, trying that. AEW is where the best wrestle, and I want to keep it that way.”
WrestleZone will have coverage of AEW Dynamite as it airs on May 8.
