Backstage News On Creative Influence In AEW
I’m told that people in AEW have been having fun working on the creative aspects of the Hangman Page storyline. Tony Khan specifically has evolved from being the person with the final say to a person developing more stories and ideas creatively of his own, as well as being more outspoken about other people’s ideas. Thus far, we’ve heard that his creative input has been received positively from people on the roster. That Hangman Page story specifically was one that he’s worked closely on and contributed to heavily.
Kenny Omega is credited with the idea of turning Britt Baker heel internally, and the promo lines about Tony Schiavone’s job were said to have come from Tony Khan.
