The problem is that Tony Khan isn't actually a wrestling promoter - he's a fan with a rich dad and he's treating AEW like it's a casual hobby instead of a serious business. The idea that wrestlers actually feed their families with the money he gives them doesn't seem to register as a concrete reality in his mind.
@@brianpughsley8680 A good manager provides guidance, but doesn't give employees free reign to choose whichever projects they feel like working on. The result is that most of the matches are unsupported by any angles at all, which is not a strategy for success.
The problem isn't that he's a fan, the problem is he's a nerd that was never cool or knows what is cool is so he thinks everything his favorite wrestlers do is good but they just come off corny
Beast Mortos in AEW simply because Tony Khan hadn't signed a new talent in 38 hours an he had some time to kill. As usual with Tony Khan, he signs talent simply so that he can sign talent. He doesn't make plans, he doesn't plan ahead, he just spends money.
At best. I am surprised that Konnan and Disco have decided to go against their experience and good sense and jumped on the bandwagon where Khan is concerned.
Oh yeah. Go look it up. Funny part was that he actually had to change things up a bit. I can't recall when or what ppv. But, it was a big one. Ha. @@KeepinIt100OFFICIAL
swerve definitely got him the job, I made a comment about it on Twitter without having anyone be tagged and Swerve ended up blocking me after it. wasn't even trying to knock him for it lol
I was blocked by Jericho, like on Dynamite in 2021. He was on commentary screeching, and I tweeted something to him about it, and he blocked me instantly. Bunch of soft douches over in AEW.
That explains the name change, Tony couldn't fit ADAM COPELAND on his graph so he changed him to Cope.... which weirdly is what AEW fans do with these ratings bombing.
Konnan saying TK is on the spectrum cracked me up. It’s about time someone inside the wrestling business who doesn’t have an axe to grind or an agenda just pointed that out.
Tony Khan was accused of ignoring black talent, so he randomly hired a dirt sheet writer to become a booker... and that writer just so happened to be black. Yet we're NOT allowed to accuse him of being a DEI higher?
Being on the spectrum or afflicted with ADHD (lol) does not mean you can’t be a cool guy. Cool, I have found, only presents in brief flashes. Not even Arthur Fonzarelli was cool 24/7.
Might as well write “PlaySchool” on the wrestling ring because Tony has been playing house for the past 5 years. Bro probably drinks a big glass of milk after every show.
Jim Ross is barely a commentator now. Why would he have any juice behind the scenes? The stars don’t need input from some carny pos with outdated tropes. I’m pretty sure that’s what they think. Although, JR’s best days are long passed.
@ I don’t think he has any real juice behind the scenes. He’s supposed to be related to the guy who plays Swerve Strickland, which is perfectly in line with the hiring decisions of Tony Khan. I only know he was somehow tied in with a rumor monger. That doesn’t qualify him to be anything in television.
Richie Rich really thought running an E-Fed gave him booking experience. Tony's too sheltered to be effective at anything. Any mild successes AEW has ever had was probably due to Shad Khan not Tony. Tony is completely incompetent at every aspect of the business.
I'm SO TIRED of people trying to act as if Tony Khan isn't a great booker. I mean he changed Edge's name to Cope... because his surname is COPELAND. If that's not GOAT booking then I don't know what is.
He doesn’t project OCD. He projects ADD. Why his booking is so chaotic. Start, stop, with no finish to a story. Leaves fans scratching their heads wondering what was going on. If he was OCD his booking would be very good because people who are OCD think 5-6 steps ahead they over analyze everything and then decide the best outcome. OCD can be frustrating to work with but the detail would be there.
Why does he need a chart? Tony only ever books factions forming, rematches from indy shows and having people talk about WWE. It's not hard to remember it all.
Whatever Tony Khan is doing, it is not booking. Sometimes it’s obvious when words and meanings evolve a bit. But this is a case of completely changing the meaning to fit the narrative created by the ignorant. AEW does not have a booker.
Not to those old enough to remember things like quotas and affirmative action and other measures to quell criticism by lowering the bar. But the use of “nepo baby” is overdone and usually outside of proper context.
I kept hearing the way the he kept using those terms over and over was just like " dude, if you're going to use the hard ER just do it already" Yeah, Wil Washington might have gotten in the door kinda sus but damn dude do you have something you want to share with the class?
Like I've been saying since 2020, Tony Khan is a 14 year old boy playing Extreme Warfare Revenge with real wrestlers. Everything about AEW screams it's the product of a random teenage wrestling nerd.
Will Washington kissed AEW butt enough to get a job with them which encouraged the rest of the dirt sheet writers to act how will did towards AEW to hopefully get hired. That’s why there isn’t much bad mouthing AEW by the sheets.

Facts
What he promotes isn’t really pro wrestling. He sure as hell isn’t a booker.
He’s a matchmaker and lets the talent “book” their stories. He tries to tie it together but the results are sloppy at best.

“He’s definitely on the spectrum” is od lmao 😂
He plans a show? I thought he just drew wrestlers with crayons and paid for it to happen in real life
Literally I'm sure that how he comes up with booking ideas. With crayons and a paper placemat 😂
@gabeguzman9478 yeah but the BEST crayons though

In that footage from the NFL Draft, Tony was using a ruler to draw lines on his sheet with draft picks.
Tony's booking style isn't "unusual," its literally how every Meltzer-brained "smart" indy mark would book a show.
Do you guys have an update on Wardlow? Haven’t seen him on tv in a while?
he's "injured".
@@KeepinIt100OFFICIAL Oh, got it 👍

The style is someone who doesn't understand how pro wrestling works or how character development works or how stories work.

Tony uses the manatees South Park style for his booking

Not one just Dynamite watcher can tell you Mortos finisher.
Trying to understand Tony Khan's BACKWARDS & INCOHERENT booking, is like trying to figure out why a dog chases it's tail!
Tony Khan planning his booking is just strange because it seems like he's making it up as he goes along.
Tony Khan was accused of ignoring black talent, so he randomly hired a dirt sheet writer to become a booker... and that writer just so happened to be black.
Yet we're NOT allowed to accuse him of being a DEI higher?
No no, according to khan, he can’t be accused of that because he himself of brown. He said that himself.
Yall just don't like the blacks.. tell the truth
@@oddishhonor I think that's why Swerve got his awful title run too.

Tony khan can’t book for his company anymore because he only thinks about his action figures and this makes figure collectors like me look bad

His booking style would be considered "unusual" if he was an actual booker. He's a cosplay booker and has no idea what he's doing.
@01:38 definitely on the spectrum 😂 asper_ger_s definitely
"On the spectrum"?
But, K dog, I thought Tony Khan was a
"cool guy".

He was a cool guy when he gave him money
Being on the spectrum or afflicted with ADHD (lol) does not mean you can’t be a cool guy. Cool, I have found, only presents in brief flashes. Not even Arthur Fonzarelli was cool 24/7.
Billionaires have the strangest habits. Alan Greenspan and Warren Buffett use physical notebooks too.
We all know he does lines
Who’s making your thumbnails now?!!🤩😍
These AI photos are great
got some great ones coming today
Konnan shouldnt be talking when his booking style is questionable aswell.
Ran AAA into the ground
I’m more interested in this botched Disco ball finish. Sounds like a great idea!
He has an inability to make anything matter, or stick. Just big announcements, title changes and signings which are all pomp but no circumstance.
He’s mister white nostrils, he’s mister blows , he’s where the ( best wrestle 😂) , he’s where ratings go so low
