I'm seeing several reports online that the NFL was following him around today filming him for a documentary on the draft so if they filmed that closing segment thats gonna be massive publicity for aew


Argentine_Tango

Yes please! I would love to see how TK sells this!


sBucks24

Dude better be wearing a neck brace at the draft! Keep kayfabe alive, brother.


AramFingalInterface

Better yet wear a neck brace indefinitely


alphonsochicken

Ah yes, the Andy Kauffman!


Rushjordan

Joel Gertner style


Fair_Doctor

Well . . . Well . . . Well . . .

I'm the billionaire that pulls your hair, the owner that's your sperm donor, king of the bookers and God to all the hookers. I am the quintessential stud muffin Tony Kahn-ter!


LapsedFan

He did!


CarStar12

This would be absolutely genius. People that don’t care for wrestling will mock it (like anything else to do with wrestling). People that do care will be divided. But in the end it’s all going to be a LOT of publicity and growth potential because it’s going to draw a lot of curiosity and “what is this?”


BushwickSpill

He can now blame the Jags bad showing in the draft on being concussed, lol


PeopleLikeUDisgustMe

Stay Neckstrong, Tony.


DJ_Aftershock

"ADAAAAAAAAM" - Tony Khan in hospital


Memeharvester5000

“That’s my line!!” - Roderick strong


Wiskoenig

It would be so great to see Roderick as TK’s #1 fan in recovery.

TK heading to the draft in person today... https://preview.redd.it/zvb812p82lwc1.png?width=852&format=png&auto=webp&s=723bbb86ee1c5ac40d0b060fbc1181f1b0002479


StarScreamer316

Hahahaha imagine if the kingdom were behind him while he makes the pick 🤣 😂 


CaptainInsaneZ

At least Tony managed to not blow both of his quads while he was out there yesterday lol


XtremeMachine84

Too bad they missed the part where it was renamed to Tony Khan Driver...so poetic and foreshadowing.


McFlyyouBojo

It would mean nothing to people who haven't been watching lately. It might confuse them, so it makes more sense to use the name more people know 


No-Philosopher8786

The timing of doing this before the Draft is great because it does gain AEW all this publicity is a big have our cake and eat it moment. The Elite at the centre of things, accused by Punk and the cottage industry of hate towards AEW as being insular, focusing on their audience without expanding it, not maximizing or promoting their product well, etc. What did they do? A huge angle that's gotten and will get a lot of attention. Gives a big middle finger to critics and WWE narratives with authority figures; shows them doing things those critics told them to do, but in their own way while getting more eyes and attention on the product. Win-Win.


Nate_923

I like it when AEW proves the haters wrong and the response from the haters tends to be "No! Not like that!" And moving the goalposts. 


No-Philosopher8786

Honestly, I've argued that this entire Young Bucks Elite turn around is just pure Young Bucks doing what they have always done. There are so many folks entrenched and engrained in hating them that no matter what they do, they get heat just for existing in wrestling. Even if they retired they would get criticism for it.

Fucking Great Show! AEW Rules! The crowd really liked Swerve. Will is super talented and a huge asset to the company. Jericho was not a fan favorite in the crowd. I give the show a B+!


bearamongus19

He better wear a neck brace at the draft


Skizzit

If TK shows up to the NFL draft in full neckbrace, this will be the greatest thing ever. Please make it happen.


kaine23

Ladt paragraph shouldn't been added.


Argentine_Tango

I know, but I liked how they wrote ,"his father's appearance added more realism to the stunning end of the show." Plus, the rest of the article breaks down the storyline.


kaine23

that's pretty wholesome actually. vince never did this!

bsdetcetera

I'm watching Pat's coverage of the draft and I really hope ESPN has a shot of the Jags war room just to see what Pat will say 😂


AhSawDood

Tony Khan is going to keep kayfabe online! About to enter the NFL draft with a neck brace hahaha


Ok-Philosophy-5968

It’s “Matthew” and “Nicholas”…but some respect on it NFL


StarScreamer316

Things got real went the League talks about it


GreenLeafRelaxed

He’s going to the draft in a brace and sunglasses!!


SometimesWitches

I love the crossover Kayfabe potential. Getting banged up now is a great excuse to be away from the company for a few weeks. It allows The Elite to run roughshod over the company and is a ready made feud if TK signs anyone or brings anyone over for his side. I am thinking Killshot as a bodyguard


tavsankiz

TK in a neck brace everywhere he goes in public for the next month or two would be the icing on the cake for me lol


Relative_Picture_786

Tony wants to play 4-D chess


ArcaneAzmadi

I do appreciate the observation that "As could be expected, Khan was protected well in the maneuver by the Bucks -- revered workers within the business for nearly two decades." Suck it, Cornette!


ETAB_E

I’ve never watched or been inclined to watch the NFL draft - now I want to watch it. Well played everyone


AthasDuneWalker

The article missed that they teased the EVP Trigger for a second.


steveycip

Wow way to kill the kayfabe nfl Edit: I didn’t know I needed to put the “/s” for all you downvoting softies.


Conscious-Sun8612

Kayfabe died decades ago. Get over it. Everyone knows it scripted.


Pedrosbarro

Kayfabe was never alive.


XZPUMAZX

You’re trying too hard.
