When asked if the FTW Title was being treated as a joke, Khan firmly denied this notion. He clarified that the title, though not officially recognized by All Elite Wrestling, has always been valued and placed in important spots on the card.

Khan pointed out that former FTW Champion Brian Cage was built up as a major figure, defeating top stars, and reiterated that the FTW Title was never meant to be taken lightly.

Here’s what Tony said:

“It wasn’t a joke or an insult. I brought it in as a really important part of the company, it wasn’t a joke or an insult. Taz didn’t bring it in as an insult at all. He brought it in to represent someone who was the top pushed heel against the strongest booked best wrestler in the world at the time, which is and was Jon Moxley.”
