AEW fans will be able to pick the guests for the promotion’s first panel at next year’s South by Southwest (SXSW) Festival in Austin, Texas.
In a tweet, AEW invited fans to have their say over who should be part of the upcoming panel.

Here are details on the suggested panel and panelists for the event:
Disrupting the Long-Monopolized Pro Wrestling Industry
In 2018, Tony Khan identified an opportunity to provide fans with an alternative, mainstream pro wrestling product for the first time in decades. The birth of All Elite Wrestling forever changed the industry, and five years later, not only has the promotion improved competition and lifted smaller promotions, but also pushed the boundaries of compelling professional wrestling, creating new fans in the process. From showcasing real-life entrepreneurialism to giving wrestlers the capacity to reinvent themselves on their own terms, AEW’s rise is based on an unprecedented playground for creativity.
Speakers:
Tony Khan, CEO, GM, and Head of Creative, All Elite Wrestling
Britt Baker, Talent, All Elite Wrestling
Chris Jericho, Talent, All Elite Wrestling
Justin Barrasso, Author, Sports Illustrated
