"It was definitely I did for Kenny and we talked it over with IMPACT and agreed for Don to come. He's an executive there. I'd love to have Don back here for the future. I'm open to working with people. I think we've shown it multiple times that AEW is probably the most friendly major company right now. We've got good partnerships with AAA and NWA. Kenny is the AAA Mega Champion, The Lucha Brothers are the AAA Tag Team Champions and Serena is the NWA Women's Champion. I love working with other companies and you never know. I'm open to Don coming back. He did a great job on commentary," Khan said.
