Tony Khan’s official answer
AEW boss Tony Khan made a shocking statement that caught many off guard. According to the report, Khan said, “I have never met or spoken to him in my life.” According to Dave Meltzer, who is close to Khan, this response has left The Wrestling Observer. Some saw this as an opportunity to recreate the Invasion angle of Shane’s WCW era, while others saw it as a potential game-changer in the world of professional wrestling.
Fan reactions and reasoning
Fans have mixed reactions. Many fans believe that this iteration will bring a breath of fresh air to the world of wrestling. With WWE signing with many promotions, the idea of Shane McMahon – WWE’s next man – striking a deal with his arch-rival has sparked the interest of many. However, Khan’s speech appears to have dampened these expectations, prompting more debate and discussion.
Shane McMahon is leaving WWE
Shane McMahon departed from WWE in 2022, with his final appearance being at the Royal Rumble, where he was defeated. Even though Stephanie McMahon made a comeback at WrestleMania, Shane was still missing. There are a lot of questions about his wrestling future and whether he will find a new home in AEW.
How can AEW use Shane McMahon?
After the news broke, fans began to wonder how Shane O’Mac would join AEW. A popular theory is that his exit is a big win for Tony Khan, as bringing Vince McMahon’s son to AEW would be seen as a power move. Although Shane’s age and health limit his activities in the ring, his involvement is more than just wrestling. He could take on a mentoring role, or he could enter a storyline role and possibly lead AEW in a new direction amid criticism of his recent decline.
The Wrestling Community Reaction
Tony Khan’s comment only adds fuel to the fan’s imagination. Could Shane McMahon be the main man in AEW’s challenge to WWE supremacy? Is his addition a new sign of professional wrestling? The wrestling community itself is on edge waiting for further developments.
The future is uncertain
Shane McMahon’s future and possible involvement in AEW remains uncertain. Tony Khan denied contacting Sean, leaving fans with more questions than answers. However, the possibility of such a rematch has sparked speculation and debate throughout the wrestling community.
