AEW President Tony Khan recently spoke with NBC Chicago to discuss the parallels between AEW and WWE’s hiring process, the effects of the fight to sign similar talent, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On the parallels between AEW and WWE’s hiring process: “Well, it’s interesting. I do think probably in terms of the two companies having a more similar philosophy about signing talent, I do think our philosophies are probably closer about who we would want to sign. So, for free agency, it could be probably a more competitive market in that sense.”
On the effects of the fight to sign similar talent: “There’s definitely a lot of competition. I don’t think we’re best friends or anything like that, and again people in the wrestling business not liking each other, but competing is probably a good thing.”
