    NEWS (2/23/24)

    * FRUSTRATED AEW TALENT REFUSE TO EXECUTE TONY KHAN’S CREATIVE IDEAS

    → Report from Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live

    “I don’t want to compare this to WWE back in the day but it is very, very much like that and a lot of people are very frustrated because they don’t find out the Tuesday before. Some people do, some people will know what they’re doing because there are a couple of matches usually advertised in advance. But most people are showing up the day of the show and finding out if they are doing anything or not. There’s very little communication.”

    “I hear about it all the time. Some people don’t want to do something, and Tony doesn’t force them. There’s a constant struggle of ‘Will this person agree? If not, what’s the alternative? Can we find a solution?’. The process of putting together these shows is filled with a lot of frustration.”
