A McMahon in AEW? Tony Khan likes the idea to bring Shane in the fray
During an interview with Maggie & Perloff, AEW Boss and manager Tony Khan revealed that while he has never met Shane McMahon, he looks to be interested on cooking something to make the unthinkable happen in his promotion.
“Well I think Shane McMahon is somebody that I’ve never met, but has a lot of experience in wrestling, and has a lot of friends in AEW. And I have never really had any conversations with him or talked to him ever. I know that he ran into Mercedes Mone after Forbidden Door, which was very cool, and kind of a cool coincidence. But yeah, I’ve never met him. I’d always be open to talk to him, and he’s welcome to stop by anytime.
I know that’s an interesting rumor. There’s been all kinds of interesting people in wrestling to come into AEW and walk through that Forbidden Door. This might be, if it ever happens, one of the more shocking ones. But certainly, even though I’ve never talked to him, he seems like a really nice guy,” Tony Khan said.
