Tony Khan ready to make multiple big announcements
– Tony Khan says multiple big AEW announcements are imminent.
“We’re on the verge of the most important announcements in the history of AEW. There are multiple aspects. The arrival of these announcements is imminent. We’ll have big news that could come at any time!!
Isn’t that the best kind of wrestling surprise when you know something is coming and you want it and it’s exciting, but you’re not sure when it’s going to happen? You have that feeling it’s going to happen. The future of AEW is very bright.”

Possible venues include Sydney’s Allianz Stadium, Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium, & Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium, with entertainment company TEG understood to be backing the event.

I haven’t been keeping track – are AEW’s ratings slipping again? That’s what usually prompts Tony to make one of his Very Important, Game-Changing Announcements that rarely live up to the hype and are almost always no longer a surprise by the time they’re actually made.
@What?
They would need to get back up in order to slip, so that’s not really the best description.
The only announcement that would actually make a difference is “I’m stepping down from creative and have hired (insert name of person who knows wrestling and booking) to handle it”. Short of that nothing’s changing. And since that’s not happening because no one’s gonna take poor little rich boy’s toys away, who (besides the “sickos”) cares?
The Headbangers are all elite.
Those will be some large empty arenas!
