Tony Khan is perhaps the happiest man alive in wrestling as a super successful AEW All-In event just went down from historical Wembley Stadium, London. Last night was a super jacked night for Khan and for 81,034 screaming AEW fans. Not to be blinded by his company’s success, Khan took this moment to pay his condolences to those in AEW’s home base, Jacksonville, Florida.

Matches come later, lives come first. Khan is fully aware of this. In the opening speech of his post-event media scrum last night, the AEW Boss took a break from talking wrestling to express solidarity with the victims of the recent mass killing in Jacksonville.

Three people, including two men and one woman, were shot dead on Saturday. A man armed with a rifle and handgun haughtily entered the Dollar General outlet and straightaway killed them. The offender quickly triggered the gun, aiming at himself after a standoff with cops.

The entire episode is currently under the FBI investigation. Jacksonville is AEW’s home as well as it is Tony Khan’s own. So he simply couldn’t let that issue slide amid the All-In celebration.

Expressing his sincere concern, Khan noted, ‘‘Yesterday there was a senseless tragedy in Jacksonville. I am sure everybody has heard about it and it has been first and foremost on our minds. Three people lost their lives in a senseless tragedy in Newtown in Jacksonville and I am very sorry for everybody in Jacksonville I and dear to those people’, I am sorry for your loss and everybody in Jacksonville I think we can all hopefully come together and agree there’s no place for that in this.”

However, after doing what he should do, Khan reverted back to his basics and made an important announcement regarding two of the greatest pay-per-view events of the promotion.
