Tony Khan Becoming More Hands-On With AEW Creative
The President and CEO of the company is now directly involved in the creative process.
With All Elite Wrestling having now found its feet and having several major storylines playing out across AEW Dynamite, AEW President and CEO Tony Khan is said to have had a big role in the recent creative direction of the company.
Courtesy of Fightful Select, Khan has progressed from simply having the final say on angles and story arcs, to now being directly involved in the creative process of AEW action.
In particular, Tony is believed to have been a key part of the ongoing storyline involving Adam Page and has also had a role in Britt Baker’s heel turn. That heel turn itself is being credited to Kenny Omega, yet Khan was the one who mapped out Baker’s promo on the Jericho Cruise where she belittled Tony Schiavone.
As for ‘Hangman’ Page, he’s begun to drift from his Elite buddies as he’s been embracing the party life rather than play second fiddle to Omega and The Young Bucks. To some, this is the beginning of a heel turn for Page, while to others Hangman is viewed as the babyface who’s pissed off at the Bucks and Kenny stealing his thunder.
