AEW President Tony Khan discussed the allegations against the former WWE CEO and Chairman while speaking with Fansided last week.
Lawsuit
A lawsuit alleged that McMahon had been involved in a sex trafficking and abuse scandal from a former WWE employee, Janel Grant. The company and former exec John Laurnatis were also named in the suit.
Khan noted he can’t comment on the allegations but detailed the safety measures in AEW right now.
Safety in AEW
“I can’t comment on the terrible allegations against WWE right now. That’s something people are paying a lot of attention to right now, with good reason. For us, first and foremost, trying to create a safe locker room environment for everybody, women and men, and we have a really good bond. I think we have a great locker room, and everyone knows there is a support system there. There are a lot of channels. I think everybody feels very good about having a safe place and a safe workspace, and there are people you can talk to. There are people in the office, but even on the wrestling side. For us, I think that the most important thing in any office of any workplace is just having a lot of people that will listen and will want to make the company a safe and good place to work.”
Khan also discussed the AEW Revolution, the main event for the AEW World Title, and more. He thinks AEW is in the middle of one of their best runs right now.
