Tony Khan Addresses Issue With AEW WrestleDream Feed On Amazon Prime, Reminded Him Of ROH Death Before Dishonor Streaming Issue

Tony Khan addressed the streaming issue.

During Amazon Prime’s presentation of AEW WrestleDream, the feed cut out multiple times for viewers. AEW President Tony Khan addressed that during the WrestleDream post-show media scrum. He stated that it was a similar issue that hindered the ROH Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view, which Khan went on to make free for viewers to watch on YouTube.

“It’s something out of AEW’s control. It was a technical problem with the Amazon delivery. I think our other streams are unaffected. It was something with their systems internally there. It does remind me, to some extent, of what happened earlier this summer with Death Before Dishonor because to be honest, those are two of my favorite pay-per-views of the entire year. I also think it was, start to finish, a perfect show, and I remember walking into the scrum with the exact same feeling in the sense of I thought the show was perfect, I thought the wrestlers delivered, the crowd delivered and the whole team backstage and in the ring delivered, and I was so proud of everybody in AEW and it was just this technical thing completely out of our control with a streaming provider, and in this case, it was a similar thing. I thought the show was perfect, the wrestling was perfect and the replay’s gonna be available there for everybody through them and I think they’ll address that and hopefully Amazon will get that figured out but for AEW, everybody here did a fantastic job. I was really glad to hear that HBO Max delivered the pay-per-view without any issues. All of our other providers did really well. But that was an unusual thing and it did remind me because we had a problem with just certain web browsers that were affected for that Death Before Dishonor show and in that case, I was able to at least address it because it was a streaming service that I owned,” Khan laughed.
