"Tony Khan collapsed in the doctor’s office" - AEW star reveals what happened backstage after attack on Dynamite
The AEW fans saw Tony Khan getting attacked on Dynamite this week. AEW star Thunder Rosa recently disclosed what happened after the company's CEO was taken backstage.
The Young Bucks and Jack Perry devised a perfect plan to lure Khan and attacked him on the Wednesday show. Following the attack, the AEW President was taken backstage which was not shown on TV.
People saw what happened off-air on Dynamite when a clip of the segments was released on the internet. But no one except the AEW employees knew what happened backstage.
Speaking on the Busted Open podcast, La Mera Mera disclosed what happened behind the stage. She said that shortly after Tony Khan was brought into the doctor's office, he collapsed.
“For me, it was really funny. I was not expecting it. I was there when this happened, and I was in shock. I was in the doctor’s room when he was brought into the doctor’s room. Tony Khan collapsed in the doctor’s office after what just happened with The Elite. Also, another thing with that The Elite, people were hating them a lot, but I think there’s now a real reason to hate them. The storyline makes sense, and I think a lot of the stuff that was questionable was after that video, where it [was] like, where’s this gonna go? Well, now I know where it’s gonna go. They’re against the boss,” Rosa said. [3:46 - 4:25]
