In a recent media interaction on Thursday promoting AEW Revolution 2025, Tony Khan, the President of AEW, shed light on his decision to return to his 2020 approach of maintaining more control over the creative aspects of AEW.
Here are some key takeaways from the media session:
Speaking about his determination to tighten up control over creativity, Khan said, “I have seriously resisted many ideas in recent months, with a considerable percentage of what you’re seeing is my input. This is precisely the approach I adopted five years ago, and it turned out extremely well. I realized that this is probably what I need to do approaching this Revolution.”
Discussing his recognition of needing to assert more, Khan noted, “A significant part of AEW’s charm lies in its collaborative spirit. At times, I’ve been overly collaborative and there’s a need to stand firm. I think in the past few months, … that became evident.”
