Tony Khan teases the "imminent" arrival of "important announcements" ahead of AEW All In 2024
AEW is less than two weeks away from All In 2024. Tony Khan often teases big announcements for his company, but this time The All Elite President is making bold claims about the upcoming announcements. Recently, new details were revealed ahead of tonight's Dynamite.
The All Elite Wrestling owner is often ridiculed for announcing upcoming announcements. Amid rumors of a new TV deal and the second annual All In event, Khan recently promised that "the most important announcements in company history" are looming large, but he did not elaborate.
Khan spoke with TV Insider to promote tonight's Dynamite. The 41-year-old was asked about his recent teasers. He said:
"It is a very exciting time in AEW for many reasons... We’re days away from All In on August 25. This is the most important and exciting time in AEW’s history. In addition to what is happening in the ring, there are so many exciting things happening behind the scenes at AEW right now. We’re on the verge of the most important announcements in the history of AEW. There are multiple aspects," Tony Khan said.
Khan continued and added that the announcements could come at any time. The All Elite President also praised his staff and declared the future of the company to be bright:
"The arrival of these announcements is imminent. We’ll have big news that could come at any time. Isn’t that the best kind of wrestling surprise when you know something is coming and you want it and it’s exciting, but you’re not sure when it’s going to happen? You have that feeling it’s going to happen. In this case, I have more than a feeling to paraphrase Boston. I have been working on this for a long time. We have a great team here. The future of AEW is very bright," Tony Khan said. [H/T: TV Insider]
Khan did not elaborate on the company potentially signing Shane McMahon. However, the All Elite CEO recently revealed several interesting items from his meeting with the former WWE star.
