Tony Khan has been very active on social media this week, directly criticizing WWE, Vince McMahon, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, The Undertaker, and John Cena.
Before last year’s All Out event, it was reported that Khan held a meeting with talent where he mentioned that Megha Parekh, Chief Legal Officer, had sent an email to Stephanie McMahon and Nick Khan from WWE, warning them not to tamper with AEW talent.
The AEW President has now clarified on Twitter that the issue of WWE tampering with AEW talent contracts became personal for him because it happened during a time when his mother was battling for her life.
“This weekend marks 1 year since @MayoClinic saved my mom’s life. During her ordeal many AEW talent came to me alleging WWE tampering, inducing them to break their contracts. I’ll never forget these phone calls at her side in the hospital; it’s when business became personal for me. This is nothing new, I mentioned it last year after she came home. It’s relevant today because she checked in for surgery 1 year ago today.
As I’ve mentioned several times since, @MayoClinic are heroes and thanks to them, her recovery from a very grim outlook has been a miracle. Not that I should be surprised, but the same WWE avatar accounts that spam me every day, no matter what I say or what it’s about, now turning their wrath to Mom recovering from a near death experience, is why I straight hate these people to the bottom of my heart with all my soul.”
