What they’re saying

“I think this is one of the best AEW lineups ever, there’s so many fantastic matches and intense rivalries.”

— Tony Khan, CEO, AEW (SB Nation)

“FTR crossed the line with the Young Bucks when they attacked their family. They spike pile drive, the Young Buck’s brother. I think anytime somebody’s family gets involved, and you hit somebody’s brother with the most dangerous move in wrestling … we’re lucky that Matt and Nick’s brother and their family are not more seriously hurt than they were. I know they’re going to be looking for a fight.”

— Tony Khan, CEO, AEW (SB Nation)

“To me, there are only three tag teams in the conversation for the greatest tag team of this century, and it’s The Briscoes, FTR and the Young Bucks.”

— Tony Khan, CEO, AEW (SB Nation)
