The recent Twitter activity of AEW President Tony Khan is being seen as a ‘declaration of war,’ it has been claimed.
Prior to this week’s ‘Tuesday Night War,’ Khan took aim at the ‘bald a**holes’ Triple H & Shawn Michaels before NXT & Dynamite went head-to-head.
After WWE NXT beat AEW Dynamite, Khan tweeted about John Cena & The Undertaker appearing on a show that earned under 1 million viewers for the first time.
In the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it is reported that those in WWE didn’t take kindly to these tweets or Khan mentioning the Vince McMahon allegations. The report stated,
“Those in WWE did contact us very quickly after that post [about McMahon] with the idea that it was like they saw it as a declaration of war by still discussing the subject.”
The Observer noted that a declaration of war arguably happened in January 2019, when AEW’s launch was announced.
