Tony Khan Addresses Question About Harassment Backstage In AEW

Chris Jericho captured headlines that he never intended to on the morning of AEW Worlds End. Allegations about him and Kylie Rae broke the internet, and Tony Khan had something to say about the idea that harassment is present in his company.

Ringside News provided extensive coverage of AEW Worlds End. This was quite night, and it also saw Chris Jericho receive a chant of “NDA” from the Long Island crowd.

During the media scum after AEW Worlds End, Tony Khan was asked about sexual harassment claims, and he was quick to jump to his company’s defense. Tony Khan made it clear that AEW is a very safe company, and everyone has an open line to talk to him about any problems they have.

“It’s a great question, Kevin, and I think it applies to everyone in the company, women and men, and it’s something we’re very serious about. We have a policy in place, and I think that any time there’s anything like that we would make sure that we do everything we can to prevent it. AEW has the best safety record, I believe of any pro wrestling company in the world. We have a safe environment. I believe we have the safest environment out of any pro wrestling company in the world, and I would hold the record of AEW on safety against any pro wrestling company in the world, and I believe that AEW is the safest place for pro wrestling. If any of our wrestlers ever have a concern, they always have an open line to talk to me.”

“I believe that anyone could tell you that they are free to come and talk to me at any time they are concerned about anything.”

Tony Khan continued to say that if anything came to light to him, he would “take it to the disciplinary committee.” He then circled back around and said that everyone on the roster has an open line to him, and that committee.

We will have to see if more allegations come out about Chris Jericho, but Tony Khan maintains that AEW is a beacon of safety in the pro wrestling world.
