Tony Khan absolutely listens to fan feedback when it comes to the booking of AEW.
That's what Khan said during the AEW Dynasty Post Media Scrum when he was asked if he ever considers "calling an audible" when it comes to his booking.
"Absolutely, I take that into consideration. We had a lot of great moments for the fans tonight. Swerve was the more popular man in the house tonight. You had two great AEW World Champions having this match and the return of the Young Bucks spoiled what was a great World Championship match on a night where there were a lot of fan favorite moments. That was obviously not necessarily the outcome that a lot of people were hoping for. On the other hand, I do think that Jon Moxley has been, from the very beginning of AEW one of the most important figures from the very first pay-per-view we ever did. It’s very interesting now. This creates a lot of intrigue to have the Young Bucks come back. It’s important to remember we have not seen the Young Bucks in almost six months in AEW. From the very beginning, they have been instrumental in the launch. They are founding fathers. To see them come back this way and get involved and break up what could have been a great moment for the fans, that is consistent with the kind of character we’ve seen from the Young Bucks in recent years. I would say it creates an intriguing situation. Certainly, the fans are behind Swerve. They are every bit as behind him today, after the event, as they have been at any point. I don’t think the Young Bucks involvement and screwing him changes that. Tonight, it creates an intriguing situation. I am very aware the fans love Swerve and he’s one of our most popular stars. Jon Moxley, you could argue, not just his history, but recently has done great things for the company," Khan said.
Khan said that he was very impressed with the "barbaric street fight" that Moxley and Cope had on Dynamite recently, but also the mixed tag team match with Moxley and Marina Shafir taking on Swerve and Willow Nightingale. He also said the street fight did the biggest rating AEW has had since November.
