In a recnet interview with ESPN’s Sedano & Kap, All Elite Wrestling President Tony Khan discussed several topics, including his recent meeting with Shane McMahon.

“Well, as I understand, he’s not doing anything with WWE, and I had a really nice visit with him. I heard from a lot of people that he was interested in talking and it had become frankly a big media story to the point where I was getting asked on the record questions about it and I answered them just like I’ll answer you now.

In advance of, I had never met him and my first conversation with him, there was a lot of buzz about this, I thought it would certainly be worth talking, and I have a lot of respect for him, I had never met him, but he seemed like a really nice guy.

I sat down with him, he was fantastic, I really enjoyed talking with him, he is a very smart person about wrestling, and I thought he was a great guy. I was down there in Dallas, and he was in Dallas, we have a lot of mutual friends and we both happened to be in Dallas, a mutual friend linked us up, who is one of the bigger names in pro wrestling and that friend put us on a group chat.

I had a really nice talk and I really enjoyed visiting with him. Clearly, there was a lot of interest in it, somebody in the middle of talking at an airport conference room, somebody just busted in and took a photo, I think that’s fine, I enjoyed the conversation and there is nothing wrong with a couple of people getting together and talking about wrestling, that’s part of what makes wrestling so great.

There is a lot to talk about and we’re all fans at heart, it’s a big thing, it’s exciting. It was nice to talk to him, I don’t know what’s to come, but it’s an exciting time in AEW.”
