AEW Fan Donated a 2 Figure Amount to Tony Khan, Taking a Massive Shot at His Booking Skills

Wrestling fans are passionate, but does this passion drive them to put their hard-earned money on the table? That too, for just letting their voice out regarding some minute analysis of the current dynamic of their favorite promotion? You might say no until you meet an ardent AEW fan who rose to the headlines during the Forbidden Door media scrum.

A highly eventful Forbidden Door aired on June 25th. It brought out many phenomenal factors that undeniably deserve to go down in history. Now, as time progresses, it will be clearer how the event affected the fans and critics as well. But it seems like one die-hard fan couldn’t wait to come up with the bullet pointers that he thinks suit the promotion’s future growth.

An AEW fan spent money to preach to Tony Khan

During the AEW & NJPW media scrum, a lot of significant issues came up, but perhaps the most surprising one came from a fan who dared to diss Khan over his poor booking skills. The stranger wrestling buff was so desperate to get his messages across that he even didn’t hesitate to drop $10 million to owe himself the chance to critique.

The guy was seemingly a David Benoit fan, the late Chris Benoit’s son who is yet to follow in his father’s footsteps. The fan asked Khan to take a chance on Benoit by signing him on the roster. He, on the flip side, doesn’t want Punk to be a part of AEW anymore.

With a few more demands on his list, the fan articulated during Khan’s rambling, ”Dear Tony Khan, if you want to improve AEW. 1) Better Storylines 2) sign David Benoit (late Chris Benoit’s son), 3) Bring AEW Hardcore Championship belt, 4) fire CM Punk (i used to be a fan).” (h/t ringside news)

While facing a critique directly seems something unusual, Khan is no stranger to garnering criticism for his booking of talents.

Bret Hart once blasted Tony Khan for allowing excessive violence in matches

A handful of talents often question Khan’s booking decision. There are multiple reports that spoke of the superstars’ dissatisfaction over their place in the promotion. For the past few months, a lot of wrestling fanatics launched serious verbal attacks on Tony Khan for his poor decisions. A few of them belong to the rival promotion, WWE, for obvious reasons.

Months ago, Canadian WWE legend Bret Hart slammed AEW Boss for how he booked Jon Moxley’s matches, with heavy violence. Hart made it clear that he lost all interest in Tony Khan’s product and promotion as well. He even urged fans to refrain from watching AEW shows.

Now, speaking of the fan’s open advice to Khan, it’s yet to be seen if the AEW head takes any of those into his consideration and brings some significant changes in the future.
