A recent episode of the ROAR Around The Ring podcast featured AEW CEO Tony Khan as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Khan’s thoughts about what he looks at now when it comes to signing free agents to AEW.
“And so, we have to be very considerate about who we sign and about who comes in to compete because right now there’s already so many great wrestlers competing for these spots on TV and on pay-per-views.”
Khan also gave his thoughts about his current philosophy on start and end times following this past Sunday’s AEW Redemption event starting at an hour earlier than usual for AEW pay-per-view events.
“My goal for the last one was if I start an hour earlier, I’m 100 percent sure I’ll be done before midnight Eastern, and I was. So, I thought that was great. That’s the goal. That’s all we need. I’m done before midnight Eastern and it’s before 9 pm on the West Coast. I think that’s great.”
