“This Is Class”: An Injured Tony Khan Finds Surprising Fan Support After Attack From Jack Perry on AEW Dynamite

In the latest edition of Dynamite, the AEW President made an appearance after Jack Perry asked him to appear in-ring. The returning AEW star asked him for another chance but attacked the President after Tony Khan accepted his apology. The Young Bucks and Kazuchika Okada intervened but joined the party to attack Tony Khan.

Khan has worn the damage in recent days, as he has donned a neck brace at all times. The decision earned rave reviews from a sector of fans, who appreciated the AEW head honcho’s desire to keep kayfabe alive outside the company’s walls. At the moment, it is unknown how long we will see Khan with the neck brace. But what we do know is that he is receiving a lot of love from the fans.

Fans show their support for Tony Khan

The neck brace did not make its first appearance in AEW as a prop worn by Tony Khan. Instead, it was Roderick Strong who made it somewhat of an accessory, as he has been coming into the ring wearing a neck brace for quite a while now. So when he saw Tony Khan wear the neck brace, he saw an opportunity to click an exciting photo that might foreshadow a future tag team run if Tony Khan ever decides to wrestle. Captioning the Twitter post, “#NeckStrong“, Roderick uploaded a picture with Tony Khan, where the two are wearing neck braces.

This post surely attracted a lot of attention. And while the attention is usually on the negative side for Tony Khan and AEW, this time fans decided to pour some love instead. Here are some tweets of the fans showing their support:

This surely was a classy picture, according to this user.

Another user asked the two to keep on protecting their necks.

This user couldn’t help but praise the two #NeckStrongs

A tweet that is probably foreshadowing a future tag team championship reign for Khan? Bookmark it ASAP!

Another user guessed that Tony Khan was learning from the best, i.e. Roderick Strong

This user simply wished for good health and early recovery for the two.

These wholesome tweets might’ve made Tony Khan feel much better now. But what would be more exciting to see is how he would react to the beat down. According to AEW lore, CM Punk was fired because he apparently hit Tony Khan or at least threatened to, so he was fired. But Jack Perry and the Young Bucks did assault the AEW president. And Khan surely believes in kayfabe as he did wear a neck brace. So will he fire the Bucks and Perry? Or will AEW find a loophole around it? What do you think? Let us know in the comments.
