Tony Khan clears the air.
The head honcho of All Elite Wrestling took to Twitter on May 2 and responded to a reporter that claimed that AEW All In, the company's upcoming historic event in London, was only set up to sell 40,000 seats. In his response, Khan noted that this was not true and called the statement a "load of crap".
LIES. What a load of crap. Tell your agent Nick Khan to shove it up his ass

Tony Khan also accused the report of having Nick Khan as his agent. Nick Khan currently serves as the CEO of WWE.
Khan quickly followed up by noting that the event has already grossed over $4,700,000 for the company in just the first day of ticket sales.
Today's one of the best days in @AEW history
