Tony Khan Says AEW All-Atlantic Title Will Be Defended Differently Than Other Belts

In an interview with My Mom’s Basement (via Wrestling Inc), AEW CEO Tony Khan confirmed that the All-Atlantic Championship will be defended differently than other belts in the company. Pac recently went to REVPRO to defend the belt against Shota Umino, a match that aired on AEW Dark last night.

Khan said: “We have a great All-Atlantic Champion in PAC and the way he’s defending the title now, it’s going to be a little different than the way some of our other champions have. PAC is defending title around the world. He’s a fighting champion. We have a lot of fighting champions in AEW who are fighting on Dynamite, Rampage every week, and also on Pay-Per-View. PAC won that title on Pay-Per-View at Forbidden Door, but we’ll see if he comes back to America as the All-Atlantic Champion because he’s scheduling defenses oversees that I signed off on and really encouraged.“
