Bandido Praises Tony Khan for Believing in Him Since Day One in Response to Jake Hager’s Criticism of Khan

As noted before, former AEW wrestler Jake Hager took shots at AEW CEO Tony Khan in a recent interview with Sportskeeda’s WrestleBinge podcast over his issues with Khan’s leadership of AEW and his negative experience during his time in the company.

A recent episode of the Battleground Podcast featured AEW talent and current ROH World Champion Bandido as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Bandido’s thoughts about Hager’s recent criticisms of Khan and his own experience working for Khan.

“I’m very grateful for him. He always believed in me since day one. I choose a different company in the beginning but Tony was very excited with me since PWG shows and I’m just happy to be here now and Tony believes in me. I just want to say thank you to Tony, thank you to all the company and thank you to all my partners here because it’s such a great locker room over here.”
