Tony Khan Reacts to NJPW Ownership Change Ahead of Forbidden Door

Published

on

AEW CEO Tony Khan addressed the recent transfer of Bushiroad’s NJPW shares to TV Asahi and CyberAgent at Thursday’s pre-Forbidden Door media call, calling it “an interesting transaction and something to keep an eye on.” Khan said there have been no changes to AEW’s working relationship with NJPW, noting he’s still dealing with the same administration led by Hiroshi Tanahashi and Gedo and that he looks forward to maintaining continuity with the new owners.

NJPW’s presence at this year’s Forbidden Door is limited to Zack Sabre Jr., Shingo Takagi and Shota Umino, and Khan confirmed AEW programming will leave NJPW World in August with the launch of MyAEW. When asked about NJPW as a potential content partner on MyAEW, Khan pointed out that NJPW operates its own service, and emphasized the ongoing collaborative relationship between the promotions.
