It has been reported by Tony Schiavone during AEW Collision that Tony Khan is currently on the bench and recovering from serious injuries that were sustained in a recent altercation.
The incident, which involved The Young Bucks ambushing Khan, led to the AEW President sustaining multiple head and neck injuries. As a result, he has been advised against any form of travel and will therefore be absent from the upcoming AEW events in Winnipeg and other locations. This development was confirmed to viewers in an announcement made on the latest episode of AEW Collision.
Schiavone relayed on the show, “Tony Khan had suffered multiple head and neck injuries. And I talked with him today, and he tells me that he feels very blessed and very happy that he is still able to work…however, physicians have strictly told Tony Khan that he cannot travel. But he’ll still be able to run AEW as we go from city to city.”
Making reference to the April 24 episode of AEW Dynamite, Schiavone pointed out that Tony Khan was victim to a TK Driver by The Young Bucks. Notably, the AEW CEO has been spotted on NFL programs wearing a neck brace since the incident.
