On their Executive Vice President roles in AEW:

WWE SmackDown On 5/3 To Air From 6-8pm On TNT Sports 1 In Ireland And UK

Matt: We're such a baby company, still. I think we're still just trying to figure that out. We're all wearing 20 hats each. 

Nick: We are behind the tag teams that are getting hired and signed. There's different categories, you could say. Kenny is taking his time on the women's division. He's got his hands all over that. 

Matt: You should have seen him at Fyter Fest. He worked 3 different matches he had to coach. Plus he had to do our match. He was nuts that day ... At the end of the night, he just passed out.

On the impact they are having on the wrestling business:

Nick: We've changed the whole pay scale for everyone in wrestling, which is awesome. A lot of our friends are getting paid and they're finally making money for the first time in their careers. It feels good, it feels awesome.

Matt: The pressure has been put on everybody in the professional wrestling business ... Everybody is trying harder now. It's very competitive again. We need competition again. The industry needs it to survive.
