Tony Khan knocked the forbidden door in pro wrestling down, and he is quite open to knocking the UFC-AEW barrier as well. When Jorge Masvidal appeared in AEW, Tony Khan called it an honor to host the former UFC Champion.
"Anybody who knows Dan, love’s Dan, and that’s why Jorge comes, cause he loves wrestling. He likes having a good time; I think he likes me; I like Jorge a lot and it’s fun having him here. So, it’s really an honor to have Jorge Masvidal. I mean, Jorge is such a cool guy. I can’t tell you what a nice person he is, and he’s always really been good to me like not when we’re at shows but just around Florida and stuff. And it was a big deal for him to come here, and who knows?" Tony Khan said. (h/t: Essentiial Sports)
