The landscape of the pro-wrestling business has gone crazy these days. With only two names popping on the wrestling screens – WWE and AEW. However, AEW Rampage’s win over WWE SmackDown’s in terms of key demo rating made AEW President Tony Khan release a number of Tweets, which raised some eyebrows.
Tony Khan displayed almost a child-like behavior on his social media, where he replied to every tweet which was remotely related to the comparison between AEW and WWE.

Khan replied to tweets in such a way that it looked like he was pushing his AEW programming down the throat of the audience. Which does not look like the owner of a company in any sports.
Is it a child or is Tony Khan?
Tony constantly took to Twitter, where he talked about AEW fans and how AWE butchered the last 30 minutes of WWE’s SmackDown and that AEW is the A1 show here.
Let’s go @AEW fans! I’m excited to see head-to-head half hour numbers from last Friday, soon we’ll know. Most of all, I’m looking forward to another great weekend of wrestling this weekend! See you for #AEWRampage Friday + #AEWDynamite one more Saturday before back to Wednesdays!

Even the fans online did not like the behavior of AEW’s President and it only showed how insecure Tony Khan is right now.
This is all so stupid and embarrassing. I equate this to a football team losing the game. But then going on tv bragging they won the 4th quarter. Not the game. Just the quarter.

This rating war should bring out the best talents and ideas from the two companies and not it should not just be about taking shots at each other.

However, AEW stands tall when it comes to taking shots on WWE. On the other hand, WWE does this too, but not that much.
