Tony Khan recently did an AEW All Out media scrum, where he discussed a wide range of topics.
During the call, he discussed the feud with hangman Page and Swerve Strickland, which will headline All Out in an unsanctioned lights out match.
“I have so much respect for Swerve Strickland and Hangman Page both,” Khan said. “I think they’ve both been excellent as the world champion of this company. I think each of them has been a face, an ambassador, a leader in this company, and they’ve also become iconic rivals. And when I think of Hangman, I’ll think of Swerve. And when I think of Swerve, I’ll think of Hangman forever now. That’s one of those great things to be in wrestling, to have that counterpoint to yourself.”
“The things they’ve done to each other are so violent,” Khan added, “The horror that they’ve inflicted upon each other is so indelible that this rivalry will surely live on forever in the memories of AEW fans, and I think [it] will be at the forefront of what we’ve done here in AEW.”
