Forget The Rock, it looks like Tony Khan feels AEW is responsible for pro wrestling being cool again.
The AEW President spoke with Indie Wire for an interview, during which he spoke about competition between pro wrestling companies fueling the resurgence of popularity in the business.
“There’s a number of big factors that would play into why wrestling has seen such a great renaissance in recent years,” Khan said. “I think it comes from the great competition in wrestling right now, and the fact that there are so many great stars competing right now.”
He continued, “Everyone knows that the most real thing in wrestling is the competition between the companies. The companies hate each other, and it will be a natural resource that powers the industry. They want to beat each other and take everybody’s free agents, and that makes it interesting for everybody else.”
