The Toronto Star has a new article up that looks at AEW becoming a viable alternative to WWE. The story features several quotes from people associated with WWE and AEW, including Eric Bischoff and Tony Khan. Bischoff noted that AEW needs to stop referencing WWE on their programming unless they are willing to compete head-to-head. He said,
“If they don’t have the balls to go head-to-head, then shut up and wrestle. There is no tactical advantage in completely degrading your competition when it’s clear to your audience that you don’t have the guts to do anything about it. You’re fighting a fight that you are not willing to get in. It’s childish to me.”
AEW President Tony Khan replied with the following,
“I don’t care what night the shows are on. It’s really irresponsible for (Bischoff) to say that because I don’t pick what night the show is on. These are time slots that I was assigned.“
