Kevin Nash has a unique idea to catch those within All Elite Wrestling who are leaking information about the company’s plans.
AEW executive Jerry Lynn recently blamed “wrestlers and God knows who else” for sharing backstage affairs with the internet and podcast hosts.
Because wrestlers and God knows who else have and continue to leak info to the sheets, podcasts, etc. So Tony tries to keep things confidential. You wouldn’t want to know everything before you see a movie. Anyone who leaks info is doing damage to the product and the industry.

On a recent edition of his “Kliq This” podcast, Nash suggested what he called a Game of Thrones-esque strategy to catch anyone who is sharing what they shouldn’t. He said,
“It’s real simple — I’m going to tell you guys how to do this. You tell two or three people the wrong information, and [if] it f***ing gets out, you know who the rat is. That’s like booking 101. Sit people down and tell them, ‘Hey I don’t want this to get out, but this is what we’re doing.’ And if it gets out, you’ve only told three people — guess what? Voila!”
AEW’s next major event will come later this month with Full Gear 2023. The promotion will host its first ‘Worlds End’ pay-per-view next month.
