Tony Khan comments on Ric Flair's presence in AEW.
Ric Flair was presented as a gift to Sting on the October 25, 2023 episode of AEW Dynamite and has joined Sting as part of his retirement tour leading up to his final match at AEW Revolution.
Speaking on Going Ringside with News4Jax, Tony Khan was asked how things have been going with Flair.
"It's great to have Ric Flair in AEW and have Ric Flair be part of his final matches for Sting. Also, it's been a great sponsorship opportunity for AEW. Ric Flair is a mogul and somebody who is involved in a lot of businesses as an entrepreneur. Ric Flair's Woooo Energy is a great sponsor and Ric Flair is a great legend in pro wrestling and having him appear and with Sting for these final matches is really something special," he said.
Khan previously stated that Flair is essentially paying for himself due to the sponsorship deal.
Flair was in Sting's corner on AEW Collision as Sting & Darby Allin defeat The WorkHorsemen (JD Drake & Anthony Henry). If you missed anything from AEW Collision, check out Fightful's full report on the show by clicking here.
