Despite AEW's ratings loss, Tony Khan gets GOAT status—Is it deserved or just hype?

You may have thousands of reasons (including the recent dump in ratings) to vent about Tony Khan’s worth as a leading promoter. However, he has successfully established his credibility in the global business. The AEW president holds a lump sum of net worth of $1.5 billion. Although Khan might interstate his huge money from his billionaire father, Shahid Khan, the chief of Flex-N-Gate, he put in his hard work and dedication to multiply it even more.

Amidst all the brickbats and critiques of neat-picking mistakes in managing and signing the superstars in his promotion, the 41-year-old received applause from a celebrated actor and content creator, Druski.

Also, his meet-up with Marcedes Mone at LaGuardia Airport in New York City on July 1, 2024, fanned the flame of the ongoing rumors. It’s pertinent to note that McMahon is not under any kind of contract with WWE and Khan has already revealed that he has no problem in welcoming the WWE veteran in the company.

However, given the family heritage that the 54-year-old possesses, joining the rival promotion might invite some flakes on the legacy and goodwill of the McMahon family in WWE. What’s your take on Tony Khan receiving acknowledgment from renowned actor-comedian, Druski? Let us know in the comments.
