Tony Khan comments on his injury.
Wednesday's AEW Dynamite closed with Tony Khan being laid out after an attack by The Young Bucks (Matthew Jackson & Nicholas Jackson) and Jack Perry. After initially embracing Khan, Perry turned the tables by striking Khan in the stomach with the microphone.The Bucks followed with a TK Driver as Kazuchika cheered them on.
"They changed the name to the Tony Khan Driver. Maybe I should have seen it coming, in hindsight. They called it the Tony Khan Driver. I have a complicated relationship with Matt and Nick and Jack. Jack had been out of AEW for a while, I sent him on an excursion to our partner in Japan, he did great things. I reinstated him Wednesday night, by his own request. He repaid me by hitting me in the stomach with a microphone. Then, Matt and Nick pulled me up and gave me the Tony Khan Driver, which is a spike pile driver. It's really one of the deadliest moves in pro wrestling. It's been banned in a lot of states. It's illegal in the state of Tennessee. For them to do that to me, it scared me and it scared my family. I feel lucky that I'm here at the NFL Draft and with the Jaguars," Khan said on NFL Network.
As the show came to a close, Tony's father Shad Khan entered the ring to check on his son.
"He was very angry at the people that assaulted me. He loves AEW and is a big fan of what we do. He watches every show. He never expected something like that. It's never happened before," said Tony.
Tony encouraged fans to tune into AEW programming for an update on how he's doing.
