In a recent interview with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, AEW president Tony Khan discussed Shane McMahon potentially joining AEW, Keith Lee’s AEW debut, and much more. Here are some highlights:

Tony Khan on Shane McMahon potentially joining AEW: “I’d certainly take the call. I’m sure he’d be an interesting person to talk to about wrestling. I’m not sure exactly if he would be a fit. I have not heard from him, and I don’t expect to hear from him, but in this business, you never know.”

On Keith Lee’s AEW debut: “Keith’s debut was incredible. Much to my amazement, Keith got released. As soon as I saw that he was released, this was the moment I dreamed about.”

On Jay White’s appearance on Dynamite: “Expect to see more Jay White in AEW. He came through the ‘Forbidden Door’, and there were many reasons his arrival transpired the way it did on Dynamite. That wasn’t finalized until Sunday, and I’m so happy that we could bring that excitement to the fans. I wanted to have that ‘Forbidden Door’ element to our show. It was intentional to have that moment backstage, reuniting members of the Bullet Club against their old rivals from Chaos in Rocky Romero and Trent Beretta.”
