AEW President Tony Khan books everything on All Elite Wrestling programming. For a long time, Khan had stuff planned out months in advance, but that’s not the case these days.
According to the Wrestling Observer, AEW wrestlers are frustrated with how late Khan provides them with their booking plans these days:
“So much of the stuff is if you follow AEW, a lot of the stuff is being decided at much later periods than previous. Guys are getting their information on what they’re doing later and decisions are being made later. So that’s just how it is.
I mean, there’s time on the day of the show when you don’t even know. It’s almost like we talk about WWE, which is also very frustrating for talent. It’s like a lot of the guys have a lot of input on what they’re doing. So they’re doing stuff, but they don’t really know a long-term direction.
So they’re doing stuff, and they’re coming up with ideas. But when you don’t really know exactly the long-term direction, then you’re kind of like coming up with ideas week by week, too, but you don’t know where the ultimate thing is. And maybe the ultimate thing hasn’t even been decided.
So that’s one of the reasons that the shows are like the shows last week.”
AEW Producer & Coach Jerry Lynn saw this report and tweeted the following:
“Because wrestlers and God knows who else have and continue to leak info to the sheets, podcasts, etc. So Tony tries to keep things confidential. You wouldn’t want to know everything before you see a movie.
Anyone who leaks info is doing damage to the product and the industry.”
