Ahead of WrestleMania, Nick Khan has spoken to Bill Simmons, where he would take several jabs at AEW, claiming WWE doesn’t bench talents, calling CM Punk a “gentleman,” and trying to undermine Tony Khan’s leadership of AEW by saying, “Nothing but respect to the father who finances it.” This has subsequently sparked a significant amount of online debate among fans on social media, who are analyzing his comments. Yet not being one to mince words, former WWE talent and current AEW star Ricochet has addressed this by saying on X, “These guys f*cking suck.”
Not including his time working as an usher at WrestleMania IX, Khan’s relationship with WWE began when Triple H contacted him about booking his then-client, Tim Tebow, to wrestle Big Show at WrestleMania 30. And while that obviously never occurred, the former lawyer went on to negotiate WWE’s future television deals. From there, he joined the company full-time in 2020 as President and Chief Revenue Officer, reporting directly to McMahon. However, with the billionaire having resigned in disgrace, Khan is effectively WWE’s top person when it comes to day-to-day business activities.
