Tony Khan is set to make a blockbuster announcement on AEW Dynamite
AEW President Tony Khan has already made it clear that he has a huge announcement to make at this week's edition of Dynamite.
Many have speculated as to what could possibly be up the sleeve of Khan. However, a majority believe that it has something to do with the rumored latest signee for the company, Mercedes Mone.
Multiple reports have suggested that Mone could sign with Tony's company after her negotiations with WWE reportedly fell, and apparently Khan and his promotion were ready to pay her worth.
While Mercedes did make it clear that she would return to wrestling in March 2024, Khan could fuel further speculation and drop a major hint of her arrival this week on Dynamite.
