Tony affirmed AEW’s strong position in the industry, noting its bright future in both television and streaming:
“I have no idea (why Bischoff is critical of AEW). I don’t really care what he says. We have done really, really well and we have a great thing going with AEW and something to be really proud of.
We’re not only, for years to come, going to be doing shows on TBS and TNT, but we’re going to set the record for the longest run of pro wrestling ever on TNT.
It’s really important for the future to also have a foothold in streaming, and that’s what we’re going to have now with AEW on Max. I think AEW is doing fantastic.”
