Tony Khan, as you'd expect, totally disagrees with recent comments made by WWE's Triple H.

The AEW boss told Busted Open Radio that Trips was wrong when he said (during a conference call for Sunday's NXT TakeOver: In Your House show) that the best talents want to work in WWE. Khan shook his head when he heard that, and couldn't resist saying his piece.

Tony said that "everybody is building their own roster". He then went on to add that he doesn't think there's "anything wrong with saying you think you have the best show or the best company", but that Triple H crossed the line when he said "anybody of any value wants to work [in WWE]".

That got Khan's hackles up.

Tony said Trips' words are "not true", then continued, "There’s plenty of people who work in AEW that have no interest in working there". This backed up comments made on Twitter by Thunder Rosa; she said that the best female workers are "spread over many companies and many countries".

Khan agrees with that more than Hunter's outlook, and even mentioned Rosa during his appearance on Busted Open.
